I’ll never forget the time my girlfriend came back from a planned parenthood in tears because 50 or so women were shouting baby killer and whore at her. The best part is she wasn’t even getting an abortion. She was getting prenatal vitamins for a healthier pregnancy.

That is my biggest gripe with planned parenthood protestors. Seems they fail to realize PLANNED PARENTHOOD DOES MORE THAN JUST ABORTIONS.

What you don't realize is that they're against more than just abortion. Anything that promotes sexual health or sex positivity is of the devil, to them.

Sex is just for married people and JUST for making children in their small world.

They see suffering as sacred because otherwise what's the point.

Explains why many American Christians have such a hard on for capitalism.

Yes, a lot of religious people think there's a price in the afterlife for enduring a harsh life durin their lifetime on Earth.

The best strategy to control the masses? Convince them the rich making their life miserable is a good thing! Incredible...

I understand that. I just think it's fuckin stupid. Imagine living your entire life in misery because an invisible man in the sky tells you too.

Personally I'm an atheist, my choice my beliefs. But IF there is a God, I have no problem with God, I have a problem with the people who claim to speak for him

No Christian lives in misery by choice. You are confusing cultural morals and Christianity. In Africa they fuck all the time and have no doubt, a lot of Africans are Christian the other is Islamic.

Whatever helps you sleep at night. My atheist ass gives blood regularly. I volunteer regularly and I think organized religion ESPECIALLY Christianity is loaded with hypocrisy and stupidity. Not too mention in the US right now. Christians are the ones causing all the fucking problems

Remember that as Kabul gets taken over and Afghanistan is another staging ground 😅. Wow you give blood? Never heard that one before.

So.. for people want to become parents... in some sort of planned fashion?

Yeah but if you're otherwise having sex with your wife or husband with contraception you avoid babies that is sinful, too.

Every time you have sex it has to have baby consequence.

And more than that, women who have sex should be punished. Period. Even if they're married.
