“Birth control is actually the beginning and the epicenter of the morality problem in this country.”
You mean people who like and enjoy having sex. That’s the
problem. No birth control no sex. Sex is a very powerful
force. Even priests have a hard time keeping it under control and quite a few don’t.
God is the Author of life. Sex is used and abused in this country, and in the West - and I say this, not to you, but to ay reader that might look at what you say as any way logical or final- no one who reads Humanae Vitae could ever respond in such an ignorant manner. and the masses who do not read it are doomed to ignorance and they are running our country.
THe abuse of sex, its perversion, is what the democrats derive their power from, their money and power.
Again, please don’t respond, our conversation is over.
“You mean people who like and enjoy having sex.”
No, that’s not what stanne meant. People have always enjoyed sex - even long before contraceptives were invented.
“That’s the problem. No birth control no sex.”
Gee, so that explains why there was no sex until 1961? Oh, wait, there was plenty of it for all of man’s existence BEFORE contraception.
“Sex is a very powerful force.”
So is selfishness. So is lust.
“Even priests have a hard time keeping it under control and quite a few don’t.”
So, in other words, contraceptives changed nothing in that regard either. No kidding?
By the way, married couples who do NOT use contraceptives - according to studies and surveys - have more enjoyable sex lives than couples who use contraceptives. http://www.livescience.com/16501-birth-control-relationship-satisfaction.html
Respectfully, one’s sex partner is not an object, rather a spouse. God made sex feel great and be desirable, because it promotes unity, as well as fecundity.
When we recognize the great gift, and incredible power of our sexuality, we will draw closer to our spouses and to God.
If you have been married any length of time, abstaining from sex 5-7 days a month is no big deal. For those of us closing in on 20 years, we can do 5-7 days on our heads.
Seriously, though, sexuality should not be viewed as just a pleasurable pass time. Rather, celebrated, and enjoyed for its unitive and procreative purposes.
