<div>'''Abstinence denial''' refers to two phenomena, deliberate denial by [[liberal]] and [[abortion|pro-abortion]] groups of the efficacy of [[abstinence]]-only programs in preventing disease, and denial from [[ignorance]] by those who have been convinced by the factual studies.<br />
<br />
== Falsehoods ==<br />
Liberals claim that [[virginity pledge|abstinence pledge campaigns]] are ineffective when compared to programs that involve both abstinence and information about a variety of birth control methods. However, surely numerous studies disprove this.<br />
<br />
== Motivation ==<br />
Groups such as [[Planned Parenthood]] have enormous interest in promoting sexual promiscuity, as their profits rely on it.<ref>Stanek, J. "True confessions of Planned Parenthood" ''WorldNetDaily''; August 2, 2006 [http://www.wnd.com/news/article.asp?ARTICLE_ID=51340]</ref> Likewise, pharmaceutical groups selling drugs such as [[Gardasil]] and various forms of [[birth control]] cannot profit when abstinence is used.<br />
<br />
The liberal [[entertainment]] industry relies on immoral consumers to purchase its products with immoral sexual content (television, film, etc.) Denying abstinence's efficacy is thus part of a wider attack on [[Christian]] morality.<br />
