Here we go again - Part 2

Well, regardless of whether or not that baby is Sarah Palin's child or grandchild, her family once again proves that Good Christian girls simply cannot keep their legs together.

From Reuters via MSNBC:
Reuters: "The 17-year-old daughter of Republican vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin is pregnant, Palin said Monday in an announcement intended to knock down rumors by liberal bloggers that Palin faked her own pregnancy to cover up for her child.

Bristol Palin, one of Alaska Gov. Palin's five children with her husband, Todd, is about five months pregnant and is going to keep the child and marry the father, the Palins said in a statement released by the campaign of Republican presidential candidate John McCain.

Please, Christians, spare us all the sanctimonious, holier-than-thou bull any longer. Being "saved" is just an excuse to get away with anything. Truly responsible parents teach their children to take control of their sexuality, not give that up to some mythic deity. Think about it, that deity made man in his image, to take control of the animal, starting with himself. There's a reason why humans don't have a heat cycle.

I suggest that from now on all liberals view any criticism of their openness to all forms of sexuality and their willingness to teach their children about sex from a scientific point of view as mere jealousy on the part of the conservative christians. They envy us our good families and our daughters who make it through college without getting knocked up.

Remember folks -

Family values = sexual irresponsibility
Abstinence = Getting pregnant ASAP

NOTE: I do applaud her for keeping the baby. We're all human and we all make mistakes. It's not a decision I ever had to face, but I imagine it must have been a tough one. I also applaud her for planning to marry the father. I hope their families help both of these young people to finish their educations while starting their family. It looks like they have a tough road ahead and I wish them all the best. At this time I don't plan on saying any more about this particular family.

You're ridiculous. You can teach your children values but you can't live your children's lives for them...DUMBASS. Mom doesn't spread her legs for the boy, the kid does. Start putting the responsibility back on the kids for Pete's sake. Allowing them to blame their parents all the time for everything gets them absolutely nowhere.

I will blame the parents if the parents don't teach their children the mechanics of sexual reproduction, allow for the use of birth control, and teach them to take responsibility for their own actions instead of pawning it off on some mythic deity. Parents are supposed to teach their children morality and values, and in the case of these Conservative Christians, actions speak far louder than words.
