If you don't start having more babies, the church will die!

JJ of Unrepentant Old Hippie shares a bizarre petition sent to Catholics:

"As you know, the contraceptive mentality pervades the Catholic Church in Canada. Most Catholic couples of child-bearing age are preventing children through sterilization or contraception. The birthrate is suicidal. The death of the Church is certain where contraception prevails. It has been truly said that “Our greatest moral responsibility is to convert the contraceptive mentality.

Contraception is the root of which many spiritual evils are the fruit: abortion, infidelity, divorce, pre-marital sex, acceptance of homosexual activity, the clamor for same-sex “marriage” and the corruption of politics and the media. These inevitably follow when, on a large scale, sexual activity is deliberately diverted from its life-giving purpose to sterile lustful indulgence."

Wow. Just .... wow.

Isn't that sick? "Sterile lustful indulgence" -- holy cow! Don't dare *enjoy* sex, or you may find yourself in a handbasket careening down the road to hell.

For people who think lustful indulgence is a bad thing, they sure can go on about it. And on and on...

Lol! Wringing their clammy hands back and forth while their voice jerkily breaks in anxiety, furtively wiping their sweaty foreheads .....

... more preoccupied with "sterile lustful indulgence" than any of us who occasionally, um, sterilely lustfully indulge.

Well... when you are told you may never think about sex, that's all you ever think about....
