Words of a real Catholic pope, and just think, not one mention of rabbits.
If you can’t feed them (and expect me to), don’t breed them! Nice that a bunch of celibate “confirmed bachelors” are considered authorities on family planning.
Globally, the Muslim population is forecast to grow at about twice the rate of the non-Muslim population over the next two decades an average annual growth rate of 1.5% for Muslims, compared with 0.7% for non-Muslims. If current trends continue, Muslims will make up 26.4% of the worlds total projected population of 8.3 billion in 2030, up from 23.4% of the estimated 2010 world population of 6.9 billion.
Generally, Muslim populations tend to have higher fertility rates (more children per woman) than non-Muslim populations. In addition, a larger share of the Muslim population is in, or soon will enter, the prime reproductive years (ages 15-29).
As a struggling Catholic I’m having trouble with this guy who within the past 2 or 3 weeks has proclaimed his belief in Global Warming Science and has now accused my wife and I of being “Rabbits” with our large family...
Lets Ordain Ted Cruz and send him to Rome as the new Pontiff.
Pope Francis, after a visit to the largest Catholic nation in Asia, says Catholics may have a moral responsibility to limit the number of their children and need not reproduce "like rabbits.'' -http://www.usatoday.com/story/news/2015/01/19/pope-birth-control-comments/22017365/
Pope Francis praised big families on Wednesday as a gift from God, after his comments that Catholics don't have to breed "like rabbits" made headlines this week.
On Wednesday, he gave a nod to big families, who may have felt somewhat insulted by his comments aboard the plane returning to Rome. Just weeks ago, Francis met with an association of large Catholic families to show his support. He said that while in the Philippines, it gave him great "consolation and hope to see so many large families who welcome children as a true gift of God. They know that every child is a blessing." - http://abcnews.go.com/Health/wireStory/pope-praises-big-families-rabbits-remark-28367234
In any case, unless there was advocation of artificial contraception, then as per RC recourse when faced with contradictions, RCs can say he was not speaking infallibly, and such is no more immutably binding than papal or conciliar decrees to exterminate the heretics from the land.
2 Corinthians 6:14
Do not be unequally yoked with unbelievers.
And the current pope said Catholics do not have to breed like rabbits
