2009-01-06 Opinions - Theres a time for everything -- even to be bluntPublic health officials agree abstinence is the best way of avoiding human papilloma virus (HPV), yet berate and bully school boards and families who prefer to teach abstinence rather than vaccinate minors. Pro-life clubs on university campuses live under the tyranny of choice, which brooks no alternative viewpoint.
