Bridget Maher can kiss my ass and go to hell. Seriously. Here's what she said about the HPV vaccine: "Abstinence is the best way to prevent HPV," says Bridget Maher of the Family Research Council, a leading Christian lobby group ..."Giving the HPV vaccine to young women could be potentially harmful, because they may see it as a licence to engage in premarital sex." How much jail time would I get if I were to punch her in the face?

Oh fundamental Christians, you all are so funny! And caring! And compassionate! God forbid (har har) that the HPV vaccine be legalized because young women may have premarital sex. Seems like God's strapping young lads can prance around doing whatever they feel like however, but only women have to remain pristine virgins so they can get married and produce lots of Christian children, hm? And what about the married women who are monganamous, yet their husbands aren't, and the wives get HPV that way? Whoops, sorry! Looks like the mother of two will have to get cancer and die. How pro-life is that? Oh, it's okay for husbands to spread their seed, as long as the womenfolk keep their dirty legs closed? How many teenage girls have any idea of what HPV is anyway? The pro-"life" movement is certainly misnamed; it's more of a pro-keep your damned legs closed you dirty slut unless you're making lots of Christian babies, but we don't actually care about the babies once they are born movement.

Not to mention that preventing such a vaccine from being on the market is racist too. Minority women are the people who suffer the most from this disease: Hispanic women followed by African-American women, Asian women, and Pacific Islander Women respectively. Oh, but no one gives a damn about the dirty minorities anyway, so who cares if they drop dead from cancer?

I have lots of other anger towards various things in this manner, like the Catholic mass sermon bit which praised family planning and prayed for the "scourge" of abortion to go away. If there has to be someone telling me how to run my life, it's certainly an old white guy who has sworn vows of chastity. Seriously, you want abortion to end, yet you speak against all contraceptive methods? The logic in that is...? Why am I Catholic again? And before any of you jump in saying that Catholics are so backwards, there are plenty of denominations of Christianity that are just as misogynistic, if not moreso.

If there was an AIDS vaccine, would these groups protest it because it would encourage homosexual sex? And for God's sake, there's no correlation between abortion and breast cancer, so stop saying that too.

I've been exceptionally pissed off lately; I think it has something to do with an overabundance of organic chemistry and no video games. :(

Argggggggggggggggggggg!!!!!
