And that makes his opinion on procreation invalid?

For being so holier-than-thou, you sure have a foul mouth.

Sometimes Elon Musk is way out there. This is one of those times.

You have to admire Elon Musk’s lack of filters, bless his heart.

Jacob had 12 sons by four women….

I’m not excusing, just talking.

PS Elon’s comments don’t change the facts of the matter.

Do you have evidence that what he said is not true?

FTFA: "The Time article discussed how an American Journal of Psychiatry study indicated women who take hormonal contraceptives have a three times higher risk of suicide than those who never took hormonal birth control."

A double f-bomb and a Bible verse tagline…..

How Hegelian.

I take it that you believe contraception is more important than the fact that women who take it have a higher suicide and depression rate?

A small price to pay?

Contraception and abortion are self-inflicted genocide.

I don’t know why you would think that, based only on my observation about his communication style.

I have ten children. I think contraceptives are misogynist. There’s nothing wrong with women’s bodies in their natural state of health. Men think that the fact that sex makes babies is bad and needs to be “fixed,” because men never have babies.

Elon Musk doesn't, so your generalization falls apart instantly.

Are we women supposed to be brood mares until we keel over or be celibate while our husbands seek solace elsewhere?

Practising what he preaches, no?

There are several ways of seeing his mating strategy as admirable.

- from the pov of increasing the population, which is suffering from a dearth of native births;
- from the pov of human breeding, in terms of raising the quality of the population. This is a man whose bloodline we want carried on. And he chooses exceptional (if sometimes eccentric) women to do it with.

And he is also of course a sinner, but heck, making babies is far from the worst sin.

Oh, I don’t know. Elon Musk is a complete kookydoodle. He might say the totally opposite thing tomorrow.

Brood mares.
If one sees humanity as whole as your primary concern, or such a subset of it that represents your community.
The alternative requires an individualist pov. That is generally a wrong take in Christian ethics.

So you’re fine with women on the pill having a suicide rate three times great than women who aren’t and a much higher rate of depression?

There are non-chemical ways to not get pregnant.

It’s why I need a savior.

Humorless people love to point fingers...
