The Pill is a parody of the Eucharist, without the black mass.

Women swallow the Pill, and it’s a form of “communion” with Satan. And it converts “the marriage act,” which in itself is holy, into sodomy.

Not just that, the pill DESTROYED the traditional family...as we continue to sink into some kind of perpetual orgy regime.

W o w. That is harsh. Certainly, something to reflect on.

“Father” of birth control? Is that like being the husband of a widow?

My mother took birth control pills when they first came out.

She died of ovarian cancer.

Sodomy is usually defined as anal and/or oral sex between humans, or sexual activity between humans and animals.

All those acts are sodomy because the essence of sodomy is that it is unfruitful (in principle, not just by accident). The use of birth control converts the otherwise natural, possibly fruitful act into one that is unfruitful. Thus, contracepted sex acts are a species of sodomy.

I figured there was some sort of bizarre “Who are the Rosicrucians?” Catholic, sexual transsubstantion, mystery explanation here, Art; or Lewis Carroll “This word means what I intend it to mean, and nothing more.” explanation.

I just didn’t want lurkers thinking that all of us agreed with your position that swallowing a pill turned a simple “Slam, bam—thank you, Ma’am!” missionary-position roll-in-the-hay into a particularly salacious, even barnyard tinted, “Dear Penthouse” letter.
Heh

In defense of Djerassi, he regretted what the Pill became.

He realized that it truncated the birth rate in the developed countries, and said so; he was criticized for that in the bay area about 15 years ago.

Guess the Bolsheviks thought he would be jubilant.

The ideological father of “convenient” birth control was Julian Huxley, the famous evolutionist and Darwin medalist. He was president of the Eugenics Society.

Medical industry made a lot just on that. Easily tens of billions. Just a "side effect" of "the pill" that our financial elite new world order masters love.

I didn’t say that contracepted acts are the same species of sodomy as anal, oral, and bestial acts. But they are A species of sodomy.

Fifty-five years after the introduction of the Pill, it’s about time to start discussing it honestly. It has been the primary instrument for the destroyers of our civilization.

It has encouraged fornication, adultery, and abortion, and wrecked marriage for those who have remained married, those who have divorced, and those who have never married.

The acceptance of contraception leaves no logical objection to homosexual activity or homosexual marriage. Where no logical objection exists, no objection survives very long.

Western Judeo-Christian civilization and the Pill cannot both exist.
