Sen. Ronda Storms of Florida, sponsor of Florida's anti-evolution legislation, is all about introducing critical analysis of evolution into Florida's science classrooms.
Storms and her supporters don't show that same willingness to critically analyze abstinence education, even though Florida teenagers desperately need to be "taught both sides" so they can "make up their own minds." According to FOXNews,
Florida lawmakers are looking to overhaul their state's sex education after learning that Florida teens believe that drinking a cap of bleach prevents HIV and a shot of Mountain Dew prevents pregnancy. The state, which is currently implementing abstinence-only sex education, has the sixth-highest teen pregnancy rate in the country.
For a glimpse of the hypocrisy (there's that word again!) practiced by Storms and her supporters, check out what's rumored to be Ben Stein's next project.
