Bible belt vs. Jesus belt
Advertisements [?]
After watching the PBS POV show last night I was outraged by the Pastor saying that Christianity is the most intolerant religion, I went to the PBS board to rant. He is a complete MORAN.

The show was about HS student in Lubbock Texas who was advocating that sex education be taught in her school. They have a very high teen pregnancy and STD rate. She herself a professed Christian who had taken a celibacy pledge (and is planning to uphold her pledge), said that not all were capable of remaining celibate and needed to be informed as to STD's, birth control etc.

They are attacking this young woman (PBS board) and telling her to move to a Blue State that this chit wasn't gonna fly in the Bible belt. I told responded that the Blue states have much higher educational standards, attend Church and live in the JESUS BELT not the Bible belt. I like it, not to exclude those of other faiths, they are very welcome in the Jesus belt.

I am sorry for this rant, but, I am so tired of having my faith hijacked by false prophets and challenged as to my belief being less then the fools.
