But the medium is not unique in its potential to corrupt. So can books, magazines and even, of late, prime-time television. Temptations to sin will always be with us and around us so long as we live in this world. Parents today face threats to their children's innocence that earlier generations never knew. And they are rightly concerned about the availability of pornography to youngsters.
Federal officials are unfit stewards for our young people.
With rare exceptions, they have exhibited no genuine interest in moral values. They, too, are stained with original sin. Look at the federal government's own record. It has foisted graphic sex education on children in public schools. It is itself the largest purveyor of pornography, in the form of magazine sales on military bases.
