A Valentine's Day Message Good for Today

Evenings come to an end.
But mistakes last forever.

Powerful, isn't it? This poster was created by the Anscombe Society at Princeton University. The society is a group of students "dedicated to affirming the importance of the family, marriage, and a proper understanding for the role of sex and sexuality."

The Society grew out of the desire some students sensed for something better than the sexually drenched college culture.

Here is the perspective of one student:

"I remember my freshman year, in my hallway at Forbes, we went to our
residential adviser for our study break, and there with the soda pop and the
chips was a bowl with flavored condoms," said Joan Claire Krautmann, a
senior from Salem, Ore. "So immediately, when you get on campus, you're just
bombarded with sexual material."

So here's to a Valentine's Day message that we can use on campus - and everywhere - TODAY.
