W.VA. SCHOOLS NEED `SEX RESPECT'

I FIRST thought it was an April Fool's joke regarding the article about the sex-abstinence text being used in Roanoke County schools. But after reading it, I say "Praise the Lord!" That is the first positive thing I have seen in this society obsessed with homosexual rights, AIDS, abortion on demand and the National Rifle Association insanity.

Where can we obtain these texts? I would like to do everything I can to get them in the schools in West Virginia. You know it must be good because the American Civil Liberties Union is against it, a Louisiana judge, playing doctor, said the information is medically inaccurate, and an assistant superintendent of Roanoke County schools "gasped" and "flinched" when she read a line that instructs teachers to encourage students to attend worship services.

Sex Respect books must be just the thing for this Godforsaken society. EDWIN H. WARFIELD LEWISBURG, W.VA.
