The Catholic Church's Poor Stance on Contraception

Hello All,
   A Catholic Outpost in Cleveland is cutting ties with a Catholic school building a health clinic. The sole reason for the split is clear, the clinic must offer contraception, something the church rather moronically denounces because it is against Catholic teachings. The Church's stance is deplorable, as 69% of adults with AIDS live in Africa, and the church is against contraception use to prevent more from being infected. All I can say is that this is another reason that the church should cease existing.

Quote of the Post:
It seems my granddaughter, Annie, had given an interview in one of the
teen magazines.
And somewhere between movie stars and make-up tips, she talked about her
feelings on
a woman's right to choose. Now Annie, all of 12, has always been precocious,
but she's
got a good head on her shoulders and I like it when she uses it, so I couldn't
understand it when her mother called me in tears yesterday. I said, "Elizabeth,
what's wrong?" She said, "It's Annie." Now I love my family and I've read
my bible
from cover to cover so I want you to tell me, from what part of the Holy
Scripture
do you suppose the Lambs of God drew their Divine inspiration when they sent
my 12
year-old granddaughter a Raggedy Ann doll with a knife stuck through its
throat?
[pause] You'll denounce these people, Al. You'll do it publicly. And until
you do,
you can all get your fat asses out of my White House. [Everyone is frozen.]
C.J., show these people out.

I believe we can find the door.

Find it now.

The group leaves the room quickly and quietly.

5 Questions Atheists Cannot Answer (Answered)

Hello All,    Sorry I haven't posted in a while, between running and schoolwork I've been busier than normal, so here's a new post. So, SJ Thompson, a religious apologist, specifically Christian, has posted 5 questions for atheists, this post is from May of last year, but I just found it today perusing the black hole of doom, gloom, and depression that is the internet.  So her first question is, " So, why do even individualists know that we ought to help the weak, feed the poor, and be honest, humble, just, cooperative, empathetic, forgiving and loving? Why is it that all societies, regardless of their practices, know what we   ought   to do? Where did we get this moral compass?" My answer is a quote from the Greater Good Magazine run by UC Berkley, " We are so used to empathy that we take it for granted, yet it is essential to human society as we know it. Our morality depends on it: How could anyone be expected to follow the golden rule without the ...

President Trump Shouldn't be In the White House

Hello All,  Would you agree that President Trump is a misogynistic, scientifically illiterate moron who should be nowhere near our nuclear weapons or the White House? He denies climate change despite the overwhelming evidence, and if you look at what the Republican Party is, it's a shell of what it once was under Lincoln. Republicans think that all the other countries are out to get us. Instead,we should just make friends and find our niche in a global economy. Trump has canceled research verifying greenhouse gas cuts. If America wants to remain a superpower without throwing its weight around to get what it wants, then it needs to move away from fossil fuels, every job in the fossil fuel industry could be outsourced to another industry, workers who maintain oil and natural gas pipelines can go into the plumbing industry, or on maintaining the coolant systems on nuclear reactors. Chemists could work on developing bioplastics, managers can be outsourced to a...

Why Impeaching Trump Is a Bad Idea

Hello All,    I'm here to write why I think it would be ill-advised to impeach Trump in the present state of the government, (as of October 25, 2018). The first, and largest problem being that if Trump is impeached, which is unlikely, even after the midterms, as this assumes a Democrat win in the House and Senate, the latter of which will be a harder race for Democrats, is Mike Pence, as a bible-thumper, arch-conservative, it's almost better to wait it out until 2020, because even Republicans are starting to dislike Trump's brand of conservatism, and Pence is further right than Trump on Gay Marriage, Abortion ( on which Trump has no consistent position I can find) and on women's rights, because of Presidential Line of Succession, Pence would take office and become the 46th POTUS, resulting in a far more conservative America that might cause a mass exodus to countries like Canada, The U.K, and the Netherlands. The Second issue is that as there may be a new Speaker of th...
