Vatican stand on contraception

[prodigal-sun]

Too bad you assume wrongly this happens 99% of the time when the stats show the reverse.

???.. sorry I must be a little obtuse but I don’t understand what you are saying here. I believe what you are saying is that I’m correct in stating that condoms do not work 100% and that the risk of exposure to aids, preganancy, other std’s is possible with the use of condoms.

Thank you very much for support.

Peace!

Here is my humble unsupported opinion on why the Vatican is so against contraceptives.
this.

Against AIDS faithful marriage or celibacy are more effective than condoms.

But the whole question is strange. Within a faithful marriage there is no risk to get AIDS from sex. Without, sex is sin anyway. Is it more sinful to commit a safe fornication or an unsafe fornication? Sexually the same, but if fornication is unsafe it is also a sin against one’s own and your partners health, kind of murder or suicide, or also a sin of being uncool, coz sex without marriage is massively uncool.

There is no such thing as safe fornication.

But it’s just not realistic (IMHO) to preach “no sex”.

Yes. But depends on how to preach. We’ve gotta preach this way:
+Marriage is cool: hugging, eating together, watching F1 together, playing hot-seat games… marriage is almost as cool as celibacy.
-Fornication and adultery are uncool since they hugely lack togetherness, fun and trust. Premarital sex is for fags, all cool dudes know this.

The truth about sex can be expressed in many ways.

Absolutely. There are diseases that transmit from skin to skin and a condom can’t save, but they are not lethal.

My point is that a condom is not safe. It simply lulls people into thinking they are safe. It encouages more bad behavior.

True. This is like ‘safe’ is a positive, good word. The word itself makes people feel good about things labelled ‘safe’.
