Immunized against offspring. Immunized. And yet we have the gall to be outraged when the CDC muckety-mucks refer to pregnancy as a disease.
Gee, where in the world would they have gotten that idea? Was it perhaps instilled THIRTY YEARS AGO by the likes of the Dynamic New Leadership the likes of George H. Bush hailed?
I can't believe the primary complaint from all comers is that this is so dated.
God help us ...
Dated? Hardly.
Did you ever look at http://www.epa.gov/opperspd/futures/millenni/MILL12.TXT -- yes, it's located on the EPA's website. You'll have to search a little for more information on the U.N. University, the Millenium Project, and EPA funding, as I've misplaced some bookmarks.
1.4.2 Novel policies that could lead to the Vatican's acceptance of contraception without limit:
- Remove Holy See from the United Nations on grounds that it is not really a country and give it the same status as the World Council of Churches.
- Promotion of contraceptive that is accompanied with strong dissemination of moral values.
- Separate personal religious beliefs from personal choices as to the use of contraceptives.
- Theological doctrine developed by U.S. Catholic Bishops in support of sustainable development (of Government Statements at UNCED 1992).
- New international convention of religious leaders - Vatican III - with supporting papal encyclical letter - 1995.
- Elect a non-European Pope.
- Schism
- It is not practical.
- Create philosophical shift among powerful within the Roman Catholic Church.
- Policies that focus on responsabilization of woman to make choices.
- Only decline of organized religion is likely to affect the situation.
- Allow priests and nuns to marry and pay for the raising of children.
- Reconsideration of the theology of St. Thomas Aquinas - especially the discarding of the Thomastic view of "natural law" as it applied to human sexuality. Christ said nothing whatsoever about human sexuality. Separate the notion of procreation as the only "natural end" from that of enjoyment.
- Try to influence Vatican that some kinds of contraceptions could possibly be acceptable-not"chemical" and for women contraception but "mechanical" and for men (condoms)contraception.
Your tax dollars helped pay for that, Askel5.
