Will the insanity never stop?

From Road to Surfdom:

Bad news: deaths from cervical cancer are on the increase.

Good news: there's a new vaccine that stops the virus that causes the cancer.

Unfortunate news: the virus in question, human papilloma virus (HPV), is sexually transmitted.

Obvious news: you simply have to vaccinate girls before they become sexually active.

Unbelievable news: "religious groups are gearing up to oppose vaccination, despite a survey showing 80 per cent of parents favour vaccinating their daughters." Bridget Maher of the Family Research Council, a leading Christian lobby group says, "Giving the HPV vaccine to young women could be potentially harmful, because they may see it as a licence to engage in premarital sex."

Darwinians must applaud Ms Maher's judgment. Promiscuous Christians will extinguish themselves!
