After reading the statistics that, 75% of teens are having sex before the age of 20 and the CDC reports that there are over 19 million new cases of STD's occurring each year in students between the ages of 15-19, Im convinced that its the churches time to teach the truth about SEX.
We live in the MTV generation that sees reality happening in 30 minute segments of cut and produced television and instant gratification of any desire or want is the goal in life.
The truth is that things like teen pregnancies, abortions, STD's and rape can last a lifetime, and this shortsighted view of 30 minute reality continues to gather more and more victims every day.
We must take a stand and choose not to live in 30 minute segments of personal gratification put live in eternal satisfaction from the One who gave it all!
75% of teens according to the 2008 census is approx. 16 million teens. If there are 19 million new cases of STDS for 16 million teens then your data suggests every teen having sex has at least one sexually transmitted infection. Which is not the case, but if it is, I hope you guys are passing out condoms at every meeting.
ReplyDeletesome of the dates on those census are not current or are older numbers but they came from the CDC so check it out...appreciate your input...
