“If all the state is willing to pay for are abstinence-only until marriage programs, then that's all many young people are going to get.”

“...for a couple to engage in sex before marriage is doubly wrong—they are enjoying pleasures not intended for them, and they are taking a chance of creating a human life outside of the family structure God intended for every child.”

“Abstinence until marriage is the best thing for young people physically, emotionally, psychologically and spiritually. It's the best thing for society as a whole, and it's the message that schools absolutely ought to be sending.”
Kathy Martin
“An abstinence-until-marriage program is not only irresponsible. It's really inhumane .”
