But it _is_ the issue.  Abstinence-Only Sex Education, Creation Science,
and Intelligent Design pretend to be logical and scientific, of course. 
In that they are wrong in two ways - they can't make it on their own
scientifically, _and_ they are dishonest.  But it does matter.  You have
a right to be biased about politics in School.  You even have a right to
be dishonest about politics
(sort of).  You do _not_ have a right to propagate factually incorrect,
disproven, and unscientific Abstinence-Only Sex education, Creation
Science, or Intelligent Design with _my tax dollars_.  Your opinions
can't make it on their own?  That is not my problem.  You don't have the
right to take money from me by force to support _your_ opinions.
