If I make an absurd statement, like 61% of Teens want to remain virgins .... then I have to back that claim up.
If you make a claim, it’s not my job to point out the flaws - it’s YOUR job to defend your claim. That’s a rudimentary step that even a ‘Socialological’ student should be able to grasp.
Why didn’t they claim 99.997%? Why not 60.5%
I remember being a teen-aged male; and remaining virginal was the absolute LAST thing on my mind. Now, since men make up at least 50% of the population, and there is no shortage of willing partners in the other 50% of the population - it’s pretty far fetched to claim the number this group claimed.
The burden of proof is on THEM, not me. You asked for errors; I provided errors. You have provided absolutely nothing to show that this group did the most basic, the most elementry form of statistics gathering.
I hold ANY church to a high standard. There is nothing more evil, than a church who will use lies to promote their position. And it appears that this is exactly what this ‘fountain of truth’ is perpetuating.
Make a patently absurd statement, provide no basis for making that statement - and cower behind your church. That is pathetic. If you make a statment, have the intellectual honesty to back it up with something tangible and repeatable.
Virtually every ‘social science’ understands the rudimentary basis of publishing statements. If you bother to look, you will see that a study by a reputable group will have a this data.
We have a couple paragraphs published, that could have been overheard in a bathroom stall for all we know.
You are projecting your “experience” onto others. It’s confirmation bias.
The fact is, your “objections” can be applied to ANY social “science” that is in existence today. You just discount what you don’t like, and latch onto what you do.
In essence, your religion isn’t much different than the straw-man that you contend against.
