CATHOLIC BISHOPS, YOU CAN'T HAVE IT BOTH WAYS! What Are You Going To Do About Classroom Sex Education? Foster Purity As You Told Us In June? "Let there be no doubt or confusion on anyone's part: for us, your bishops, our obligation to protect your children and young people and to prevent sexual abuse flows from the mission and example given by Jesus Christ himself, in whose name we serve." Charter for the Protection of Young Children, U. S. Conference of Catholic Bishops, Dallas, June 2002 Or Continue Institutionalized Child Abuse? "The bishops of the country – 360 of us, together with theologians and scripture professors from various universities, have discussed the matter of GIL – "Growing in Love." We have all approved of its use." Letter from Most Reverend Patrick F. Flores, D.D., Archbishop of San Antonio (April 2, 2002) "Growing In Love"* Teaches ... "The sexology begins in kindergarten where children learn correct body terms such as: penis, testes, breasts, vagina, buttocks, anus, urinate, and defecate. They are introduced to the idea of self-touch (masturbation) 'For comfort or pleasurable sensation.' Each year the program explores sexual activity a little more in depth rehashing body parts and progressing to how-to instructions regarding French kissing, foreplay, orgasms, oral and anal sex. If this isn't bad enough, "Growing In Love" teaches about sex toys (dildos and vibrators), and sadism and masochism." Commentary by Judith Ammenheuser of Mothers' Watch. *Growing In Love, published by Brown-ROA/Harcourt Religion Publishers, 1999.
