Irreplaceable you.
A report from the United Nations confirms what conservative pro-life pundits have been saying for years, Europe is below fertility replacement levels. Now it seems, because it hits the UN in the pocketbook, the organization is taking notice. This from Catholic World News:
The combined donations from these countries– including the Netherlands, Sweden, Norway, United Kingdom, Japan, Denmark, Germany, Finland, Canada, and Switzerland– make up 85.6% of UNFPA’s total $389 million revenue from contributions, reports Samantha Singson in C-Fam’s Friday fax.
With the exception of Japan, each of the top UNFPA donor countries has contraceptive prevalence rates well above 70%. The average fertility rate for the top ten donor countries is 1.59. None of the top UNFPA donor countries comes close to achieving a replacement-level fertility rate. - Catholic World News
I find it interesting that the countries listed are the same countries where GLBT issues are given preferential treatment, while providing egual rights, including the campaign for legalization of same sex marriage, as well as legal protection from anyone opposed to the moral implications of the GLBT lifestyle.
The contraceptive mentality and homosexuality.
The two seem to be related. Ever since the invention of the pill, which provided a no mess, no fuss dimension to the contraceptive mentality, the practice of contraception ceased to be considered shameful or immoral in contemporary culture. It seemed everyone was doing it - which was a major factor leading to what is commonly referred to as the Sexual Revolution of the 1960’s.
The relationship to the acceptance of homosexuality as an alternative lifestyle makes so much sense to contracepting heterosexuals. Why? Because both engage in non-reproductive sex. Sex is sex. Making love is sex. If two people love one another, they have sex - without consequence. Sex between a contracepting couple is no different than sex between two people of the same sex - both are non-reproductive acts for the sheer pleasure involved. (Despite the fact the couples insist they are “making love”.)
Neutralizing sexual relations.
Today, with the morning after pill, the birth control pill is not always a necessity. It is well known that many young people do not consider fellatio sex - the Clinton/Lewinsky scandal brought that notion to our attention. Acts of sodomy are performed by heterosexuals as well as homosexuals, to escape the consequences of natural intercourse, this fact came to light in some of the sports sex scandals over the years. (However, it is my understanding that married, non-contracepting couples may engage in similar acts, with the exception of anal sex, during foreplay, so long as the end result is natural intercourse open to life.)
My point is this, if heterosexuals are having sex in the same manner as homosexuals, and both are non-reproductive, hedonistic indulgence, it would be hypocritical for a society not to recognize same sex partners as equal to themselves.
One sin protects the other - or links to another - in the diabolic chain forged by Planned Parenthood and the Human Rights Campaign agenda. Even at the expense of annihilation.
At Fatima, Our Lady warned that if her requests were not heeded, “many nations will be annihilated”. Here we thought she was speaking about nuclear extinction. Perhaps not.
