America's War on Sex
 

Sounds like a pretty good book!
Synopsis:
...The author, an internationally known therapist, focuses attention on the power and injustice of America's 'War on Sex'. He sees this 'war' as part of a process in U.S. public discourse whereby religion and emotion are replacing science and pluralism.

A coalition of political, religious and civic leaders are using the issue of sex to frighten, misinform and bully citizens, passing laws restricting sexual expression, health care, entertainment and education. Aided by a sensation-seeking mass media, this 'unholy alliance' is deliberately inflaming Americans' anxiety about out-of-control sexuality - sex crimes, teen pregnancy, 'porn addiction,' infidelity and the 'homosexual agenda.' The resulting fear has made Americans vulnerable to dramatic new sex-negative public policies. But when public policy is driven by fear and propaganda the results poison, rather than protect.

A nice comparison between the book, and rebutting the latest rant from MIM.
Deception Continues to be the Name of the Game at Morality In Media
However, Pe+ers should know that, according to one of his fellow conservatives, Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia, "morality" is no longer a proper basis (if in fact it ever was) for federal law.
