Importance of Remaining Intact


While working in the Bronx office this morning, I had the chance to speak with two young women who were uncertain in their pregnancies. Being impressionable and young, these two girls listened to everything I had to say, in addition to watching educational videos. At the conclusion of each of the sessions, both girls commented on how being informed would have changed their decisions, if in fact their pregnancies had been real.

This led me to contemplate how abstinence has been disregarded in our culture. It is sad that contraception is being passed out to the youth of America, as though it were Halloween, and those pills and condoms were candy waiting to be devoured.

The re-emphasis of remaining a virgin must be recognized by our youth, as well as the administration within the American education system. However, it has consistently been disregarded as the moral integrity of America slides down a slope. Remain steadfast in prayer and hope, for the truth always prevails.
