ROFLMAO! "Every sperm is sacred!"
Actually, I've found motherhood to be the most rewarding job I've ever had. But the more children you have, the less time can be devoted to each of them.
Perhaps you ought to read the Catholic Church’s teachings on AUTHENTIC feminity, not that garbage peddled by the women’s rights movement & Cosmopolitan magazine.
Why is it that every time a woman wants to control some aspect of her reproductive life (through non-lethal means), she is called a Feminazi??? I maintain that those of you who would allow your wives to continue popping out baby after baby have no idea the of the physical or psychological cost to some women...nor would you even care. Thus, that mentality imho falls into the realm of animal husbandry, and not that of a human husband.
Therefore, the analogy to the Islamic view of femininity would seem to be correct.
To make the claim that Catholic mothers are somehow strong armed into childbearing by animalistic husbands is pretty ridiculous. You ought to try getting out more.
And if you’d like to control your reproductive life, then don’t have sex during the fertile days of your cycle. I guess maybe that’s too difficult for some people, though. Discipline & self-control can be quite inconvenient in this hedonistic culture we live in.
It appears to me (correct me if I’m wrong) - your problem isn’t Rick Santorum - so much as it is the catholic teaching.
Of course - you don’t like it that Rick actually believes in the teaching of the church he belongs to.
No one is forcing anyone to be a catholic.
While my husband and I have a large family - no one forced me to. I am not treated as a “breeding machine” - and the catholic teaching is vastly different than Islam.
While I disagree with many politicians on their PERSONAL opinions - I don’t require 100% with my personal beliefs in order for someone to get my vote.
Is it your position that a practicing, faithful catholic should not seek the presidency?
