When the parent says so--not when you do.

but he'll still vote democrat in the next election, and encourage his congregation too.
that's the kicker

Well, you know, Taliban Mullahs get a bit sensitive about Madrases.

I'm sure he'll get over it once he organises a stoning.

At what age should people be able to learn maths and science?

Interesting answer. Of course, age appropriatness should be the deciding factor, but who appointed you as judge of what that might be? Should every parent have to wait until you are ready before they allow their children to gain basic knowledge about their own body? We aren't talking about purely salatious information. We're talking about basic body functions.

As needed or when they are ready.

Well he will be the first dem to exhibit some common sense in the last two decades.

What?

The Christian Taliban. They need to stone unbelievers to feel better about things.

Banning the book means it won't be available when they are ready and it is needed.

Okay.got it.

Any age they can learn about basic universal facts about their body. Learning about a penis or vagina is no different than about an eye or a hand.

But to learn about sex in lewd and graphic adult based context? Never in a public school.

If a school board won't listen to him reading something then what makes it suitable for children to read and see in a school setting away from their parents?

Who exactly is teaching little kids lewd and graphic adult sex?

What was lewd about what was in that book? Obviously, it was inapropriate for the venue, but not lewd. That's the point. High school kids are certainly old enough to know the things he read out of that book.

It is not appropriate to read that to 10 year old children behind their parent's backs.

Ok, so what age do you think it is appropriate?

High School. Even then, there is no need for it to be so blatantly vulgar for no reason. Granted, many of those kids have already experienced sex, except a classroom is not the place for the matter to be discussed in such a manner.
