High Desert Perspective

“”Young people’s sexuality is still contentious for many religious institutions. Fundamentalist and other religious groups the Catholic Church and madrasas (Islamic Schools) for example have imposed tremendous barriers that prevent young people, particularly, from obtaining information and services related to sex and reproduction. Currently, many religious teachings deny the pleasurable and positive aspects of sex.” the report states.”

The International Planned Parenthood report, “The report demands that children 10 and older be given a “comprehensive sexuality education” by governments, aid organizations and other groups, and that young people should be seen as “sexual beings.”

“Young people have the right to be informed about sexuality and to have access to contraceptives and other services,” Bert Koenders, the Netherlands Minister for Development Cooperation, wrote in the foreword to the report. It was his organization that helped fund the report.”

How sick is Planned Parenthood? “The report argues that sex education should be “recast” to show sexuality as a “positive force for change and development, as a source of pleasure, an embodiment of human rights and an expression of self.”

Like Charlie Sheen, Tiger Woods and other sex addicts, Planned Parenthood leaders need help. Maybe that is why the Left wants to mandate mental health care in insurance policies.
