Typical anti-Catholic, pro-population reduction crap being advanced by left-wing MSM.

"Washington Post Faults Catholic Church Teaching for Filipino Poverty"

And I fault liberal narcotic-welfare for creating the utterly humiliating liberal plantation in New Orleans called the 9th Ward.

Better title: “WAPO laments birth of so many brown people.”

Is it a good thing that poor Filipinos have lots of children they can’t really afford to raise?

Wait a minute...I thought Democrats wanted Big Governement OUT of the bedroom? You can’t mean to say that sodomy between concenting, same-sex couples is government-sanctioned legal behavior, but the Liberals think that it is their business to tell normal humans what they can and can’t do!

So it’s the Catholic Church’s fault that the poor Filapinas have nothing better to do than have sex? What about personal responsibility? Oh STFU WaPo

It's the Washington Post. That means there's some sort of antisemitic angle in the article, but I haven't found it yet.

Best bet for the Post when it comes to world population growth is to get the staff sterilized ~ even the lesbians!

You should see the editorial in today’s issue of the USA Today... it was titled something like ‘Is Religion Killing Us?’ and went on to say that because of religion (primarily Catholicism and Mormonism, it mentioned ‘some sects of other religions like Islam or Judaism’ like once) population growth would overcrowd the planet and we’d all die because the lakes will be dried up from global warming so we won’t have anything left to drink, and religion is to blame for that, too...

Anyways, on the topic at hand, I have mixed feelings. These people may feel it’s immoral to use birth control (even condoms and stuff that definitely don’t act as an abortifacient, the pill is a whole different issue), but when the alternative is that they’ll have children they can’t provide for, IMO it’s a lesser-of-two-evils scenario, and one that people should decide for themselves.

From what I can find, the fertility rate for Fillipino women is only about 3.1 per woman. Although higher than the mass-suicidal European societies, and even higher than the US, clinging barely to replacement-level fertility rates, the Fillipino fertility rate is hardly high enough even for the likes of the Washington Post and associated liberals to take the blame for societal poverty.

In the meantime in the Muslim world population rates continue to rise. The womb is the real weapon of mass destruction, it is also how religions generally grow and survive.

My sister visited Rome last year and the one thing she remembers most is seeing the wretched excess, glitz, and opulence of the Vatican while pathetic cripples beg just a few yards outside.

Since we’re on the subject sort of, say a Hail Mary for my niece Michelle who is in the Philippines in the Peace Corps - if you would all be so kind.

Blaine Harden of the Washington Post lamented the Catholic Church’s influence in the Philippines, specifically, the government of Philippines "acceding to Catholic doctrine" by "supporting only what it calls ‘natural’ family planning," rejecting "modern contraception" as part of family planning." Throughout his article, titled "Birthrates Help Keep Filipinos in Poverty," Harden painted a bleak picture of "the fastest-growing segment of the Philippine population," which is "very poor people with large families," and sought to blame their poverty and backwardness on their following Catholic teaching, brushing aside corruption and other factors that contribute to poverty.

Here we have secular liberalism creating a poverty cycle with drug-addled po' folk who get welfare cause nobody wants to hire druggies.
