Craig I wish I knew the answer. Organized religion snatches kids into sunday school and brainwash them with the bloood of Jesus and threats of hell and the devil. I am not opposed to exposing educated people to any information selected by their own decision.

Most parents are prone to let church sunday school teach morality rather than by example at home. Daddy watches xrated tv reads girlie magazines and then leads a windy prayer at church and puts his five bucks in the plate to be saved. Daddy bets on ball games plays the cards and tells child its wrong to gamble. He lies to his wife about losing money in poker game and tells child mama just has a hang-up on him playing with the guys.

Children are rarely taught about their sexuality until they are well experienced by the other children at school. What is need in our world is for people to take responsibility for their improvement rather than depending on Jesus to do it for him. If they want their children to be moral people then they should be the example of morality.

Teach them that a little hurt now is better than a lot of pain later. Lies tend to cause more pain when discovered. Example Clinton. I don't think there are many men who would volunteer their unfaithfulness knowing the consequences. I do think Clinton should resign. If we cleaned out the crooked politicians there would be few left.

I love one ex senator who is brilliant and has sinnned probably more than Clinton. But he freely admits wrong doing before he learned better. I think Allen Simpson who has been a very immoral man is a great one to hear speak. He can teach the whys of morality better than any bible verse.

Nice to meet a freethinker like you Craig. We need to hear more from you on your experience in truth.
