| Message | Mr. Chairman, While we think it is unfair to label opt-outs as religious in nature we do agree that sexual education is needed for the children. Religious people sometimes feel this as a sensitive manner and we completely understand as should the DKP. However the children will get better educated about one of the most important aspects of life. Theodore Aswalt, President of the TGP |
