I Blame the Puritans

Most touching is now banned at a public school in Virginia.

For whatever reason, there's an ethos in the thinking of affection that we either have to be hippies or Puritans: either locked away, denying our need and desire for affection, or rebelling against all things temperate. This is clearly erroneous thinking - temperance and love are both virtues for a reason.

As an aside, what the heck is going on with Fairfax County, Va? This is the same county whose powers that be almost shut down a soup kitchen?

Well, being my former place of residence...have you a couple hours? It basically boils down to this combination: too much money/greed/materialism, caring nothing about anyone but yourself and getting ahead, a strange complete lack of culture, nominal/lukewarm "Christian" attitudes/values, and a general consensus of relativism.
