Link of the day...
I'm not evangelical andI'm not liberal (despite the college I went to.)
But this article got me thinking...
"Social liberals in the country’s “blue states” tend to support sex education and are not particularly troubled by the idea that many teen-agers have sex before marriage, but would regard a teen-age daughter’s pregnancy as devastating news. And the social conservatives in “red states” generally advocate abstinence-only education and denounce sex before marriage, but are relatively unruffled if a teen-ager becomes pregnant, as long as she doesn’t choose to have an abortion."

That article was a fun read. It was so fun that I'm going to post it on my own blog. It definitely points out something that I've been puzzled about for quite some time now. Speaking of which, I do believe the US has the highest rate of teen pregnancy in the developed world. I could go on about this until next week but instead, I will go follow election coverage.
