ClubChamp: I appreciate your response. I still don't agree, and would be glad to continue via email if you wish.

You are probably right that I couldn't convince students (high school, you mean?) of my argument. I've had difficulty convincing college students of it! But high school students or ANY children are not authoritative voices on morality. That's another mistake we make in this society. Children are not adults, and they tenmd to see things more in terms of black and white. They need to be heard, but not NECESSARILY listened to.

The world is more colorful than that.
