Religiosity and teen birth rate in the United States
I commented on this at Subrealism and wanted to edit and share more widely...
I would call it child abuse. They would do as genetically programmed beings and explore the world, and, as teenagers, live riskily. Rather than learn the loveliness of their' or anothers' body, they learn shame. Instead of discovering and satiating their passion and desire, they starve for love. Then, these half-born humans mold the newly emergent beings into the same deformed, crippled creatures that they are.
