Banning condoms is not the answer Dear Pope.
I am very spiritual, but this is ridiculous beyond all.
Get with it Dear Pope.

What do you think about this ban?

Absolutely inane! I just wish we have little more common sense to make living better of ourselves!

This is sad.


myLot reputation of 97/100. OceanTiara (2963)   ranked 132 out of 9,673 in religion  9 months ago

I know Mimpiblink..I was a little amazed that in this day and age, there is still this foolish line of thinking and coming from one so high up as the Pope himself. I ask you how much more ridiculous can it get?
Thanks for your thought dear friend. Hugs and Love to you xo

It's an ideal that none would become pregnant w/o being married first.. but I've long thought the sentiment against birth control to be crazy! As abortions are so very much worse [and more hazardous to women (and the babies!)]

It's a ludicrous ban. I'm sure God wouldn't want his people going forth and multiplying if there was not enough food and shelter for them - or any love or stable environment. Bring on the condoms, I say!


myLot reputation of 97/100. OceanTiara (2963)   ranked 132 out of 9,673 in religion  9 months ago

Yeah me too, I second that Guy! I mean really, what is this man thinking for God's sake?blink Thanks for your words...hope all is well with you there my dear friend. Hugs xoxooxhappy

Another of those thoughtless gestures that is sure to have little impact on solving the actual problem of AIDS and its related complications. If the church need indeed follow Jesus, I’m sure he would have cared sick and neglected without being judgmental about it. If the church wants to show its serious about this…they should have similar programs of interacting with AIDS patients so that they have a better dignified life and with susceptible groups so that they would have the adequate knowledge to avoid contacting AIDS.
Distributing free condoms is thought of as one of the best ways to control AIDS, especially among susceptible groups…banning condoms only ensure increase in number of Christian births and not the prevention of AIDS. The church could also have done better to invoke the fear of God in hospitals so that they do not reuse syringes (another big cause of AIDS).


myLot reputation of 97/100. OceanTiara (2963)   ranked 132 out of 9,673 in religion  9 months ago

Hello Sudipta Dear!
Long time no see and I hope you and your family are fine.
Oh yes, this is just pure foolishness really and it sort of infuriated me to read it.
What in the world is the Catholic Church thinking?
This Pope guy needs to get with it.
And I am steeped in Catholicism myself, but I do not agree with making the world a trench of disease and hurt for others who are already suffering. xo Hugs Sudipta. happy Thanks for your thoughts, I agree wholeheartedly.


myLot reputation of 90/100. sudiptacallingu (7064)   ranked 563 out of 9,673 in religion  9 months ago

Hello dear,
I've been around though not so much...I was rather tired what with my son's exams going on and you know how kids are...its more an exam for us than them! I was just to preoccupied to mylot...anyway the worst's behind me now and I am here again for some real relaxation.


myLot reputation of 97/100. OceanTiara (2963)   ranked 132 out of 9,673 in religion  9 months ago

Here's wishing your son's exams went very well as I am sure they did with an excellent devoted parent such as you Sudipta!
Again, thank you for your thoughts and so very glad to see you once again.
Yes, myLot is relaxing, isn't it?happy

god how ignorant! this kind of thing really irritates me because its so stupid and so many people will suffer since there will be so many babies born and not wanted and possibly abandoned or abused if not worse because fear of religion


myLot reputation of 97/100. OceanTiara (2963)   ranked 132 out of 9,673 in religion  9 months ago

Really Magik, I mean in these times, isn't this the worst kind of thinking?
It is unbelievable to me that for any reason, anyone would preach such nonsense! The world is already suffering as it is and so sadly because of fear and silly ideas such as this. Hugs and Thank you xoxohappy

I'm not really sure what I think of it anymore. I am trying to raise my teenage daughter and teens are so wild these days. I am glad there are condoms and birth control but I think they should be banned to those who are not of age and irresponsible.

You need to understand that the catholic church preserves old morals and believes and it's kind of reacting very slow to the changes in the society. Banning condoms is definately outreagous, but all we live ny today is based on rules or principles formulated years back.


myLot reputation of 97/100. OceanTiara (2963)   ranked 132 out of 9,673 in religion  9 months ago

Yes, P, I do understand that these are old beliefs...I do feel however that to the population he is talking to in the article, His words are very important and I think change in principles is way overdue. Thanks for your thoughts dear friend and happy myLotting to you! happy
