A Brief History of Sex Ed: How We Reached Today’s Madness
by Miriam Grossman within Culture, Education July 16th, 2013 Today’s sex ed curricula are based on the widely-accepted teachings of depraved human beings. Once upon a time, sex education was a simple biology lesson. Students learned the facts of life, and, with those facts, that sex is part of something bigger, called marriage. Teachers explained that this was the moral and healthy way to live. In those days, people understood that men and women are different, and that their union is unique, unlike any other relationship. It went without saying that boys grew up to become men, and girls, women. There were only…

Protests Show Abortion Advocates Now on Defense Fighting a Losing Battle
Back in the day abortion proponents had all the mojo and pro-lifers were on the defensive. The photo below, via PBS, is of a pro-abortion rally demanding a repeal of pro-life laws in Washington,D.C., circa 1971. At the same time, feminists were pushing the Equal Rights Amendment in all 50 states. The photo below, via illinois.gov, is of feminists writing the names of ERA opponents in pigs’ blood on the floor of the Illinois State Capitol on June 24, 1982… I take this little trip down memory lane to justapose the pro-abortion protests of yesteryear with those we see today. And while the aggression has certainly not abated, as was…

Colbert: “But now you’ve got a new charitable hobby horse you’re on, and it’s not necessarily saving people’s lives, so much as it’s stopping people’s lives from existing.
