People & Power - Philippines Baby Boom - 18 Nov 08 - Part 1

Maybe you should advocate love in marriage and love for God if you're truly a Christian, instead of encouraging people to have so many babies. That is lacking in order to live in harmonious society, people helping each other, rich helping the poor, companies not taking advantage of workers, political oppositions not killing each others and reduced crime rate.

If more Christians proclaim the teachings of Jesus Christ, we will live in a better world!

Merry Christmas!

The idea of teenagers having babies early will have a tremendous impact in the country's economy already suffering from various problems- insufficient funds for education, natural calamity, widespread poverty, rebellion by different factions, corruptions, scarce food supply and limited foreign investments. There are so many incompetent officials who seemed blind to these problems and not rigorously searching for right solutions.

The children end up in the streets begging, in dump sites digging for anything they can sell, pick pocketing, stealing food in order to eat, young girls selling their body (prostitutes), teenagers becoming hired assassins...

Certainly not all become one of them but most likely when people are pushed to the edge. These sins are the reasons why people with limited resources should be educated regarding the consequences of having more children than they could afford.

These darling precious cute babies, if not properly sustained they will grow up and become monsters(menace) to the society someday. When a poor family are starting to feel the financial burden in a desperate situation, its about survival.

In the book The Sexual Male, I read something about how puberty is coming earlier these days (probably due to better nutrition), while people are getting married later and later. Yeah, I agree, is it reasonable to expect people to wait and wait MANY DECADES for sex, to almost when their fertility is already fading away? The Philippines Pro-life Forum I frequent, opined that more people should marry young and enjoy those "raging hormones" of youth with natural babymaking/big families

To Flipsify:

Surely you are misconstruing the statistics. Persecuting LARGE families isn't what made things better, but progress in accumulating wealth among the people, which supposedly reduces fertility, as now people have other things to distract them from making more babies all the time. However, they don't tell you of the dirty secret of the rampant contraceptive pushing underlying it.

Also, if abortions were included in infant morality statistics, the "better" conditions would disappear.

To Flipsify:

The larger the pop gets, the better, because then the more people there are who can experience life. How are the people to enjoy having their precious darling God-given babies, in a world with so many people alive already, but to allow countries to populate denser, and accept that the best option is to let them naturally grow highly populated. I am for population accommodation only, never for anti-freedom fertility "control." We are ADAPTING

Selling indulgences/purgatory was wrong

To Flipsify:

Correlation does not equal causation, or specify which factor causes what. Don't you imagine that highly populated countries, are inevitable and necessary, because the planet isn't getting any bigger, and yet human numbers are supposed to go on naturally growing, for the greater good of the many, and so people can enjoy having their darling precious babies.

Why do you advocate for runaway socialialism? Providing for people isn't gov's responsibility, but their own and God's.

To Flipsify:

According to Newton's laws of physic, wasn't there one that for every force, there's an equal and opposite force? So rather than Just Say No (to drug abuse), or True Love Waits and waits and waits, what's the equal and opposite force? Not for bad, but a natural pull for so many humans constantly "in heat" with temptation all around, to perhaps marry YOUNGER if they are ready.

Pop phobics fear more teenage pregnancies because they accelerate pop growth. But LARGER families are GOOD

To Flipsify:

So what do you advocate against? Eliminate the orgasm, as Big Brother government wanted to do in the movie 1984, because it interferes with people's supposed duty to be an unquestioning slave to the state?

I don't know so much about the Church where you are at, but in my area we have Church advocacy of morality like True Love Waits (for marriage).

I have no interest so much in delaying the onset of sexual activity, as much as people simply being responsible and marrying first.
