Where Is The Praise?

[sangha]

Exactly. See some of us are at least as interested in the PRINCIPLES of how something is done as we are with the results.

Because the real world effects don't matter to wingnuts

The moral fascists don't care about reality. They just want to control other people

 

[sangha]

The conversation on who's a real Christian or not is going to get lame real fast. Time to unsubscribe. I'd like to point out though that I disproved the OP and the reaction? Complete silence. LOL

You disproved nothing. You said nothing about this until it was pointed out to you

 

[Your Star]

But its not the same. Short of a malfunction the contraceptive kills off all chances of you having a baby, the reason for having sex. By taking away that chance at a baby you are having sex just to have sex, which the bible says is wrong. With what I said you have the good parts of sex but still with the chance of a baby.

Having sex for fun isn't not a sin.

Well...back on topic...

Righty: "Abstinence only education is working!"
Lefty: "That never worked, expansive sexual education is working!"
Righty: "You're wrong! All ESE does it encourage sex! That encourages babies! AOE is the hero here!"
Lefty: "AOE doesn't work 'cause it doesn't prepare teens for the real world. ESE helps them protect themselves!"

There, I think that covers it...mostly.

Thanks for reading the opening...as WHY its working!

 

[sangha]

Don't be too hard on Joko. If he didn't build straw men to argue against, he'd never win an argument. LOL

The Pope, and his deranged followers want to ban contraception. So does Santiorum and his deranged followers

wake up and smell the reality

 

[hazlnut]

You obviously don't understand the pro-life demographic. The reason is that most pro-lifers are christians (obviously) and christians (for the most part) are morally against contraceptives. That is why they aren't praising this.

You must mean the Christian that live in Rome and those that take a vow of celibacy. Because the rest of the us are not against contraceptives.

 

[Removable Mind]

Here...let me repeat the opening for you...


I'm shocked. I'm really, really shocked that Anti-Choice (Pro-Life, if you will) advocates in DP haven't come forward and given praise for the following news.

Teen pregnancy rates in US drop to 40-year low, study shows

Reuters quoted the researchers as saying the decline in teen birthrates was largely attributable to increased contraceptive use by teens of both genders.
"Teens are also using more effective forms of contraception," said Kathryn Kost, a Guttmacher Institute demographer who co-authored the analysis.

Actually, I'm not shocked. The next complaint - "Teens are still having sex - now stop it, kids, stop it!"

Sorry Tess...the argument can go as you say as long as somebody can offer something to the contrary to this study.

 

[Removable Mind]

Anybody here realize that kids ****...they really do. But the good news is...less pregnancy because of USING CONTRACEPTIVES....gezzz!

Grow up people...

So it has NOTHING to do with abortion? Then:
1.Why would you post it here?
2.Why would it be acknowledged here?

RN...it has everything to do with abortion...and you know it. It is of statistical importance in relationship to abortion.

Have a complaint...take it to a Moderator.

Also there is no chance of a pregnancy when your not ovulating, so all they are doing is having sex for fun. Might as well use a better method.

I do not know it. I'm pretty sure a reduction in teen pregnancies has nothing to do with abortions since abortion can only be done after one is already pregnant.

It is of statistical importance in relationship to abortion.

I suppose since more abortions would be possible, but then again, the rate of pregnancy isn't the issue being addressed when abortion is being debated. So how is it of statistical importance?

Have a complaint...take it to a Moderator.

Fine, I'll address the topic.

There most likely wasn't much praise because the article you were quoting was published within hours of when you posted it. Most likely, people weren't watching that particular site for that particular article at the time. In my case, I was sleeping since it was around 6-7am when you posted it.

 

[hazlnut]

I meant true christians, not christians by name only. I probly couldnt find any demographic your right but most christian religions teach against both of these things

Question: Are true Christians allowed to where protection when have sex with men in hotel rooms?

crystal meth, Viagra and poppers, oh my...

I'm pro-life and I'll give praise right now, that's fantastic. Doesn't change anything about how a baby should be handled should they get pregnant. I'm all for contraceptives, and I think humans should fornicate frequently.

and I think humans should fornicate frequently.

As much as possible, actually....and responsibly.

 

[nathanjames1791]

Tell that to my family... There is always a chance of pregnancy unless you are using contraceptives or you are baren or you arent having sex. Believe me extended family is HUGE! Also if you think there is no chance when you arent ovulating then what makes the others better? It sounds like you should save a few bucks and just figure out your ovulation cycle

 

[Removable Mind]

That's awesome.

Thanks Mac....I knew you'd probably be the only one to appreciate the good news without hinging a spin on it...

Welp, we can't have everything, but this is still good news...and in the right direction. Until Roe v Wade and Doe v. Bolton go away...we know what the options are.

It's the intent, what's the difference of figuring out your ovulation cycle to have sex for only fun, and using BC to have sex for only fun? Sex is not just for procreating, but having a healthy sex life is vital to ones overall health.

Besides, I won't ever have to worry about getting pregnant by having sex, I'm still on BC to help regulate things though.

As i said before both parts are important. You cant have sex just for fun nor can you have sex just for procreating. You have to have both parts.

No sex just for fun?....without anticapting the possibility of having a kid? Is that what you're saying NJ?

First line and last line of your OP. Spin.
