How about Christians who object to the theory of evolution? I think sending kids to a private Christian school might be a viable alternative for parents who wan't a specific curriculum taught.This day and age,teaching HIV prevention is for the good of the public,keeping in mind that the Conservative Christian patents might wan't to only teach their kids abstinence and nothing else.Not knowing how HIV is spread could be to their detriment and to the detriment of the general public.

Or would that give the kids naughty ideas as well?

It should be common knowledge that only children of the current President get married at the Whitehouse.Instead of a emotional knee jerk reaction to this article,I would like to hear your legal,rational,justifiable reasons to ban gay marriage.

Being gay does not give one carte blanche to do what one wants, especially in a formal public arena. The people in the photos and video have no decency or honor behaving inappropriately.I don't condone such activity by any group or persons.
