On Contraception

"LIFE is not inimical to life."
---<--@

THE CONTRACEPTIVE MINDSET which constitutes the sum total of the sexual revolution of the 70's hollows out the human sexual act, taking away it's true source of meaningfulness, it becomes a disposable pleasure of the body, a mere convenience of this so-called modern age, it leads to the waning of the collective virtues that protect the sexual integrity of both our sexes i.e. chastity of body, purity of mind and modesty of will (all derived from the cardinal virtue of temperance) and this consequentially leads to pornography, diverse forms of sexual perversity, pre-marital sex, violence, abortion, rape, euthanasia, the corruption of the human family and all kinds of disrespect and contempt for the original institutions of human life so well defined by the prevailing culture of death that plagues our common humanity across all the nations of our one family of nations without exception here in our poor world below at this present time.

It is not life per se that is the problem, as life can not be inimical to life, it is how we - as common human beings - treat life, how profane or how sacred do we live and share it with others of our one race of humanity, on how our nations themselves view life in the context of each our particular endeavors of Country, on how we view God Himself as a collective whole of humanity, these are the questions whose answers will have a whole and lasting effect on our human populations.

For bearing in mind the actions of human free will, whatever promise a single human life does not fulfill in our world on God's behalf and for our own sake's is a promise that will be missing forever in our midst. We, as ourselves, can never negate the potential of a single human life, nor can we afford to ignore it, so much so that if we were to miss a single smile from one single individual, we would be missing that one particular smile forever.

It is the quality of life that determines the quantity of life and not the other way around. Another evil of contraception is that seeks to address the quantity without heed to the quality, this further degrades the quality of life and throws us further back in terms of spiritual progression as a moral whole of humanity. Just like the corruption of the human family, the contraceptive mindset has unforeseeable consequences that impact the unseen economy of sacred life and therefore, the state of our planet as a whole.

For what is this earth of ours but a habitation of life, not just human life but sacred life as a visible whole in the greater context of our one common Creator's unimaginably awesome creation.

Glory to God in the highest
Adoration to Jesus Christ
Peace to men of good will.
