Deep Ridiculous Thought
October 29th, 2007 by Pastor Eric
I don’t even need a Deep Thought today because what I saw on the news is so ridiculous it will make you mad.
On the same newscast this morning, there was a story of a high school that is giving out birth control pills to high school students. That alone is frustrating in that my daughter can’t even get a Tylenol at school but she can get birth control pills. Plus parents aren’t allowed to know if their kids are receiving birth control pills.
But of that isn’t enough, later in the same newscast was a story of a 17 year old boy who served 2 years of a 10 year sentence for having consensual sex with a 15 year old girl. So, let me get this straight… we are going to give birth control pills to high school students and then arrest them when they have sex. No wonder our students are so messed up… we are messing them up!
This is so absurd that it would be funny if it wasn’t such a pathetic picture of the lack of common sense in our society.
