Thanks for the links aqk

The more one examines the background to this case, the more one has to wonder whether what’s really being sought in the High Court is not legal support for the rights of individual teenagers to wear chastity rings in schools, but legal support for the efforts of an Evangelical Christian group to turn schools into recruiting offices for their particular US-import brand of god regardless of the wishes of schools, their governing bodies or the parents of other children.


I recently found a speech from someone in the anti-abortion Association of Presbyterian Churches who is part of the, ahem, 'abortion advice' organisation Crisis Pregnancy Centre. She explained she also gets to go into schools to talk to kids and 'give them correct information and encourage them to abstain from sexual relationships outside of marriage'.

Under the banner of anti-abortion nutter this would be highly questionable. But under the banner of sexual health professional it's deceitful and despicable.
