In view of the sex-education talks that Christian fundamentalist organisations are carrying out in Secondary Schools and JCs, an associate and I are interested to know just what goes on during them. If anyone has recordings (video or audio), they will be much appreciated.

Shianux: u sure you don't harbour political aspirations?

Me: nope
they'll dig out my skeletons haha
cf catherine's short story

Shianux: lol
what skeletons you have man

Me: probably ones I didn't know I had :0

Shianux: gssq had a 13 yr old fangirl!
and he didn't sleep with her!!!
must be gay!!!
lol
which is unlikely to be really a big issue by the time we're of political age

Me: haha!
allegations of pedophilia and homosexuality together
you think society will progress so fast?
remember 2001 [: A Space Odyssey]

Shianux: unless the fundies have taken over the world by then
in which case, I'm migrating to mars
I'll start my lil martian free love colony

Someone (3): going to ma... maybe u have been psychoed so much that u may have taken up a liking for guys

Someone else: mr god.. just read about the "masturbation is wrong" post in tomorrw

Me: what's the world coming to
CNA interviewed one AJ kid
he said people didn't accept the lesson since it had a high and mighty tone

Someone else: oh good
i had some similar talks when i was in RGS

total bullshit
there was one on total abstinence
and another on abortion. plus one on homosexuality by leslie lung himself
mostly by FOTF, i think, if i am not wrong
it definitely had a christian agenda

they are trying to brainwash the young
but seriously... masturbation?
that is going too far

Me: haha
and the condom FUD

Someone else: oh yes
i hate these self-important religious bigots
the number one thing they always condemn is any kind of sexual desire

Me: mmm
self-loathing

Someone else: yes
esp with homosexuality.
but i hate what they have done to the world with that superior-to-thou preaching of theirs

millions of catholics in third world countries, listening to the words of the Pope, do not use contraception. the result? Aids and overpopulation
senseless discrimination

Me: a catholic justified that to me by claiming that those were the consequences of their choice
like that I can start killing people because the wages of sin are death

Someone else: seriously, the whole "you-get-aids-because-you-deserve-it' attitude is crap
many women contract aids from their husbands and boyfriends!
even those who sleep around... do they deserve a certain, slow death?
*shakes head*

Me: yeah. kyrie eleison my foot

Someone else: and of course, you can't forget abortion
the eternally divisive issue

the church's stand on it, is immature, at the best
while i agree that indiscriminate abortion is unethical
what about the women who really did not deserve it? the women who were raped? those, if they carry their babies to term, will be in great danger?

i am esp riled abt this issue, because a close friend of mine was raped by her father (yes, her father)
it was a catholic family
the priest advised her to keep the child! can you imagine that?

my qn is... where was the church when the devoutly catholic father raped her daughter? they only come in when she is pregnant, confused, and downright depressed, and preach to her about the value of life.

Me: yeah
most anti-abortion people only care to make sure you don't abort the child
they don't care to help you support it
or stop you from getting into a position where you would need one

Someone else: i read a statistic... 70% of anti-abortion leaders are men
100% of them will never be pregnant

notice most religious leaders are men too. not all, but most
orthodoxy favours men

Me: that's cos women are oppressed by religion ;)

[On oppression of females in religion and feminist theory] You guys feel oppressed in any way, in your religion?... Getting the shorter end of the stick. Not really? That's the point right.
