Pamphlet warns of Spanish government's promotion of sex ed

Madrid, Spain, Apr 16, 2010 / 15:57 pm

The Spanish organization, Professionals for Ethics has published a pamphlet titled, “The Sexual Education the Government Wants to Give Your Children.”  In it, the group breaks down “the key points of the section on education in the new abortion law and why the State cannot impose a specific morality on citizens.”

Professionals for Ethics said the pamphlet is part of an effort to warn citizens about the government’s “moral and sexual formation plan” for schools, which is part of the country's new law on abortion.

The law will go into effect July 5, 2010.

With the material from the Education for the Citizenry course, now “affective-emotional formation, gender perspective, sexuality understood apart from love, marriage and the family, and absolute moral relativism have been implemented into required education,” the organization said.

Now, it added, the government “proposes to continue misinforming young people with a materialistic and hedonistic view of reality, without reference to commitment, fidelity, love and the family.”
