Someone should tell the lawmakers that the bulk of the poor minority babies that will be born because of the de-emphasis on contraception and sex education will end up becoming Democrats.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

You'd think, but look at the election debacle of 2004.
Oh. My. God.
Msgr. Vincent Foy is the biggest nutbag I've run across in a long time.
I don't know where to begin in quoting this, but....
The contraceptive mentality diminishes the level of love in society and increases the level of selfishness and lust. In education, it promotes sex-education and the resultant corruption of the young. In hospital care, it leads to sterilization, abortion and euthanasia. In the media, it tends toward license, vulgarity, pornography, and increases hostility towards God and religion.
Not least of the self-inflicted wounds caused by the contraceptive mentality is the high economic price. There is the high price tag for contraception, abortion, AIDS, other sexually transmitted diseases and family break-ups. There is the high cost of age imbalance, with heavier and heavier burdens placed on the young, who must care for their contracepting elders. It is estimated that by the year 2050, one-third of the people in Western countries will be over 60. Social security systems and pension plans will be inadequate and the standard of living drastically reduced.
If this contraceptive mentality continues to prevail, our society is headed for disaster. Statistical proofs show that if the present course is continued, by the year 2050 the U.S. will be a Third World nation.
I have employement for the simple reason that other human beings are incompetent.
The state of Texas has nothing to do with that, but it sure seems they should.
Happy Birthday, Shrift!
Thanks for the links on the evils of the contraceptive mentality, tommyrot. I think it's time for me to set up an appointment for my essure implants, while they're still legal.

Buh? Contraceptives make you live longer, or contraceptives mean less young people to care for the baby boomers? (And if the latter...isn't that kind of a self-correcting problem?)
Buh?
It's the part where low birthrate and long lifespan are the defining characteristics of "Third World" that really got me.
I need to rewrite this business requirements document. I just don't want to. Your contraception talk isn't helping.
I think part of the crap sleeping last night was the Life Serialness of my dreams. Same short and basic one, over and over, as I tried to make it come out the way I wanted. Never worked. Leaves me with a sense of failure this morning, which is distracting.

The only useful thing I've done so far today is edit a paper for a friend of mine. You want me to work on your document, ita?
