[Apologetics] Condom distribution at church - UCC likes the idea

[Dianne Dawson]

Nice poem.

Over and above the math, why would a church want to appear to condone promiscuity?  

One of the things that I feel strongly about is parents teaching children about not giving in to peer pressure.  One of the weapons against peer pressure is self-esteem combined with good morals.  How can a church claim to encourage morality from the pulpit and have someone standing at the door handing out condoms as people leave?
