Doesn't need any explanation really

Mad. The lot of them.

"The abstinence movement is flourishing in America... it is clear that the conservative Christian morality of President Bush is finding its way into legislation that promotes abstinence. The Bush administration gave $120m to abstinence organisations last year... in a moment of quietness, Denny confides that he believes that the end of the world is nigh and that Christ will return within a generation. And so where does abstinence fit into that vision? Well, abstinence, he says, is a tool to reach young people for God, safeguarding them for the Second Coming."

If Jesus DID come back (hah, bear with me here) he'd probably smack these kids around the head and go "What are you doing? Love thy neighbour!" or something. Of course it'd all be in the language of that Mel Gibson movie so we wouldn't understand it.
