What was that about abstinence?

Remember that study that purported to show that 25% of American teenagers had a sexually transmitted disease because of abstinence-based sex education?

Yeah. I smelled a rat too.

So did Mollie at GetReligion, who did an excellent job in fisking that study.

Update 20130731: GetReligion has moved to http://www.patheos.com/blogs/getreligion/ and the article is now at http://www.patheos.com/blogs/getreligion/2008/06/advocacy-in-search-of-evidence/. Links updated.
