I understand the implication, but to consider the one point in a vacuum is to be disingenuous. It is taught in Catholicism (all sub-denominations I'm aware of) that sex outside of marriage is a sin. If you're going to blame one aspect of the religion for causing the problem, then you have to also recognize the aspect that should counter balance that.

The problem is teens having sex.
