Hi,
please do not take this the wrong way. I do not want to incite an argument, I just wanted to give you some info.

In your post you said you do like reading others’ perspectives on birth control, and then you said the Catholic teachings on it aren’t biblical. I just thought I’d refer you to here:

It has some scriptural references as well as links to some other sites that you may find interesting.

Actually, I would appreciate that. I’ve only heard arguments that the Church was against it, but never read Biblical references.

Thanks again!

Your post is what I love. It’s respectful, and we can share our views.

I am not into quoting scripture, but I hope everyone reads your quote Deuteronomy 23:1: "He that is wounded in the stones, or hath his privy member cut off, shall not enter into the congregation of the Lord.”

So a soldier injured on the battlefield or some one surviving surgery to remove a cancer shall not enter into the congregation of the Lord.

Christ was supposed to be a break from rigid Old Testament law, our troglodytes forget. Christ was about forgiveness and redemption not eternal banishment for things beyond the moral will of the individual.

There is nothing Christian about your side of the table whatsoever.

If I am reduced to name calling it is because I cannot believe the ignorance, bigotry and uncharitableness of those espousing your side of the argument. This is not about saving souls. This is about you expressing your own moral self-superiority.

And yes I am rude and every other name you called me except a death troll. But you are completely and utterly thoughtless, smug in your self-assured morality no matter how un-Christian and no matter how much harm you do.
