P.S. How many men do you know that have had breast cancer?
Thank you for that supporting information.
There are plenty of problems with getting pregnant. I was on a whole slew of drugs during my pregnancies to keep me from going into preterm labor. I also had some permanent problems from pregnancy.
One cell transcribes incorrectly, and from then on all of it's daughter cells are the same way defective. The body does not recognize the aberrant cells as non self, and the cells grow uncontrolled.
It is the uncontrolled growth with no stop code that is the cancer.
it is called a cancer because it grows into local tissue much like a crab's claws, a cancer.
Not that they all do that. Some do not invade, just grow in their own capsule. Others break off in small cell size bits and take a ride down stream in the blood or lymphatics to set up shop elsewhere.
Any mass dying is most often after the growth outstrips it's own blood supply, then undergoes necrosis due to lack of blood within the center of the mass(oxygen).
My goodness, no. Cancer is not necrosis (cell death) although it may cause necrosis. Simplified, cancer is the uncontrolled growth and multiplication of abnormal cells.
seven seconds, Hah.
You type fast! (And gave a more complete explanation, as well.)
It’s the beer.
What is God's will regarding children then?
Certainly. However, moral decay and marriage failure specifically are not caused by the pill nor condoms. Demonizing those that use BC will neither prevent marriages from failing nor Marxism from spreading in America.
Sure we are watching it happen. Alienating half the conservatives on a forum only further guarantees its success. Didn't you mention the Marxist tactic of dividing into small groups?
If Marxists are patient waiting for the dominoes to fall, why can't we organize ourselves, put aside the petty differences and aim for root cause first? If failed marriages are the symptom, what causes it? Do guns cause violent crimes? Neither do tools used in the execution of infidelities cause failed marriages. Whether those tools are contraceptives or pornography or street walkers or the availability of no-fault divorce.
Marriages fail because of lack of self-control. Among other examples of the human condition. How can we regulate that from anywhere outside the individual?
And therein lies the crux of what Stalin and Gramsci stated as key components to crushing America. None of the components are external to the individual but rely on the individuals' ability to govern self appropriately. Much of what ails America could be fixed by the proper application of self control by each individual.
Some give money and some give of self.
Yup. Free and easy sex has nothing to do with moral decay. /s

I have been reading “The Graves of Academe,” by the late Richard Mitchell, source of the tagline. This book, and all his publications, are online at the site linked.
This link is to a section that I think is relevant to the kind of discussion we find when people’s anti-life or anti-birth concepts are challenged.
I’m very late to answer you but where in the world did you get the idea that women have been barefoot and pregnant in American society, lol?!!! You’ve got a lot of reading to do, kiddo.
Just because YOU came from a crazy, mixed-up family doesn’t mean all women did.
Did you not read my post correctly?
Birth control used by MARRIED COUPLES WORKS. One night stands, selfish boyfriends, and refusal to use birth control properly or at all are what causes unwanted pregnancies. Sheesh. Learn how to read.
This is my first time on a contraceptive thread. God, I hope it’s my last.
Ya know, “the folks” you speak about are probably not too interested in getting into my bedroom (as if there was anything to see!) so I’m not worried about them. This is a DISCUSSION FORUM, OK? We come here to talk about various issues and I’ll jump in to support whoever I want.
I firmly believe that there are dangerous forms of birth control. IUD, anyone?
Sounds to me like they want to get into everyone's bedroom. Your "friends" here do not come across as folks who are screaming to get government out of our lives. In fact - pay attention because this is why conservatism doesn't sell - they come as if they are in the same wrong headed mold as the liberals wanting to use the power of the state to accomplish an end - their end rather than some other end. THAT is what has led to the moral decay in this country.

Opposing contraception is a basic part of the pro-life cause. That’s why most people who call themselves pro-life are not really pro-life. And true pro-life ideas are not repulsive to any reasoning person. You’re just not a reasoning person.

Actually the failure rate is relatively high and the bad effects on marriage are common.
