You have to meet people where they are, you can't expect non-Christians to accept Christian morals, if you care about the people you wish to help, you have to reach them in ways which will work for them.
To start with, I've already mentioned abstinence education, right? Plain and simple, it doesn't work. I don't think I have ever seen a reliable study done that has shown evidence that it does.
Problem: Statement A has nothing to do with Statement B. Abstinnce education doesn't work, never has and probably never will, whether it's with Christians or not.
Besides which, as far as sex goes, morals are pretty darn similar with Islam, Judaism and most religious belief systems. Monogamy is pretty much standard fare across the board, with exceptions where one man can have multiple wives (which, by the way, was considered normal and acceptable for most of Biblical history as well, seeing as how many Biblican patriarchs had multiple wives).
Danny, I'm calling bullshit on you. Care to try again?
