Preventing unintended pregnancies is NOT the main goal of the abstinence-only campaign. If abstinence-only sex ed became mandatory nationwide, and teen pregnancy rates went up 100%, they'd STILL support it. Their main goal is, in fact, to try to control our sex education so we sexually behave the same way they do, because darn it, they're RIGHT. Their thinking is limited by their doctrine. I saw a TV interview with someone who was a leader in opposing gay marriage, I believe. He came right out and said that if it were proven that homosexuality was biologically determined, he would still think it was immoral and oppose same sex marriage. "What's that? It could make society healthier and happier? Sorry, I'm against it. It's WRONG." Bristol Palin being the new face of their campaign doesn’t surprise me.
