					<description>One would think that a vaccine that helps to prevent any type of cancer would be reason to rejoice. Just shows how skewed people's views are by irrational beliefs. It's the old &quot;if you give the condoms, they will have sex&quot; argument. Condoms or no, people are going to have sex anyway, so why not make it safer?</description>

					<description>Hi fshk,

Yesterday I was at the hospital for some allergy tests and passed by a table where some nurses were fundraising for cancer research. I stopped to give a donation and chat and mentioned the new vaccine to them and how the religious right is so against it (for the reasons you outlined in your post). They were absolutely shocked at the stupidity of that point of view. 

I think we in Canada have a few fewer right-wing nutcases, though vigilance is always de rigueur.</description>

					<description>Oops, fshk beat me to it....Britwit, I am not Maha's daughter.  But I can tell you the real daughter who did this post is one smart gal.  When Maha took off, fshk, Maha's real daughter, gave me help throughout the day so that I could navigate the system for posting

Thanks for that, fshk, and thanks for your 'kids will play' post..  The line I like best is when you said, &quot;why not say we are administering a vaccine for cancer......take sex out of the equation.&quot;</description>
