Don't let the kids read this!

The Bible poses a threat to "Abstinence Only" sex education:

Falling in Love With the Erotic Song of Solomon
When Denise and Roger Friesen planned a Valentine's Day dinner for their Omaha church, they immediately knew their theme: the Song of Solomon, sometimes called the Song of Songs, the most romantic book in the Bible.

"O, that you would kiss me with the kisses of your mouth!" says a woman to her lover as the book begins. "For your love is better than wine." Later language compares male legs to alabaster columns and female breasts to clusters of fruit on a tree.
