Nice. GK was the man wasn’t he? Great reading.
How far humanity has fallen since the protestant sects assented their approval to contraception in the 1930’s. How far catholics have fallen without knowledge of NFP, with 80% estimated using contraception. What I have found interesting is throughout the US the percentage of catholics in a city correspond to the percentage that voted democrat. For instance, if a city voted 55% for 0, the city had about a 55% catholic population. I found these statistics at city data.com.
Man today simply wants to satisfy his lust. We are paying and will pay an even higher price for it too.
The sin inherent in contraception is its selfishness. To desire the pleasures of sexual intercourse while seeking to deny life to the children which are its natural consequence and divine purpose is a selfish act. Within marriage sexual intercourse a man and a woman offer themselves body and soul, including the ability to generate new life, to one another; it is a self giving act. Contraception changes this to one in which they use one another, merely seeking to satisfy their lust. It thus becomes a selfish act and a rebellion against God’s design. It denies life to one’s own potential children for the sake of material goods. Contraception makes a mockery of the prayer “thy will be done.” This mentality leads naturally to the acceptance of non-marital sex, abortion and homosexuality.
I can't believe people would post this verbal diarrhea let alone read it...
So would you concur that there exists degrees of sin?
Sin makes you stupid.
Anyone who denies Natural Law falls under that saying.
