Heretics For A Free Choice

[BLAZEr]

Good Catholics Use Condoms

We believe in God.

We believe that sex is sacred.

We believe in caring for each other.

We believe in using condoms.

Is this woman (Frances Kissling) on crack? I think she and I have a different definition of sacred.

Feel free to email them and tell them what you think:

info@condoms4life.org

email them over and over and over again. I'm sure that the SPAMMERS would LOVE to invite them to try something to help them get a tighter fit for that condom. Maybe we should share this email with every known spam agency in the Free world.

I'm so darn subersive! She's just lucky I'm not near her offices. I just might have a little skunk that needs a new home.

What a stupid advertisement - the bishops don't work for us. I don't understand why they can't accept the Catholic Church is not America and it's not a democracy. They should just leave and become Episcopalians. Sending an email...

btw...That St. Peter's Basilica Dome Umbrella is pretty amesome - I want one.

Amen. What makes rubber so special? Jerks.

[traichuoi]

whenever these advocates for contraception do a campaign like this they are labled as an "education effort." read their press release.

whereas, true LIFE supporters are labeled as prude, old-fashioned, and detached from what people need.

i guess i'm a "bad" Catholic! woo hoo! B)

BUT i ditto that on the umbrella...let me know if you find out where to get one.

[littleflower+JMJ]

im going to email them.

rest assured.

;)

[Uncle Gus]

Emailed.

[foundsheep]

I dig the umbrella also,does that come in an ubrella hat? These people have the attitude that young folks are gonna do it anyways, so make sure thay have condoms so they dont get sick or make babies, instead of campaining for abstinence till marriage. What mindjobs!

ANTI-CATHOLIC GROUP ATTACKS VATICAN

 

Catholics for a Free Choice (CFFC) has commenced a “Good Catholics Use Condoms” public education campaign that condemns the Vatican for its opposition to condoms.  The group’s director, Frances Kissling, accuses the Catholic Church of promoting a culture of death; it is planning an ad campaign in Washington, D.C. and overseas. 

 

Catholic League president William Donohue responded as follows:

 

“Catholics for a Free Choice is one of the nation’s premier Catholic-bashing groups.  There is nothing Catholic about it save for its name: the U.S. bishops have twice condemned it as a fraud.  Moreover, its enthusiasm for abortion puts it at the epicenter of the culture of death.  Now it is distorting scientific evidence to make its case once again.

 

“Over the past two decades, condom use has soared.  So has the level of sexually transmitted diseases (STDs).  That’s because young people have been lulled into thinking that condoms prevent STDs.  They do not—only abstinence does.  Between the defects in condoms, their improper storage, improper usage, and their inability to prevent STDs that are spread from skin to skin, it is no wonder that the level of condom use and the incidence of STDs track each other. 

 

“Kissling’s latest campaign doesn’t do the Democrats any good.  The Democratic National Committee (DNC) continues to provide a link on its website to her anti-Catholic front group.  We will match Kissling’s latest public education campaign stride for stride, educating more and more Catholics about her work, and about her ties to the DNC.”

OK...what the cr@p? Yes, I'm going to e-mail them as well.

[traichuoi]

i emailed them already too...also sent them references to CCC 2284-2287. HAHAHAHAHAHA! i crack myself up... :D B)

2284 Scandal is an attitude or behavior which leads another to do evil. The person who gives scandal becomes his neighbor's tempter. He damages virtue and integrity; he may even draw his brother into spiritual death. Scandal is a grave offense if by deed or omission another is deliberately led into a grave offense.

2285 Scandal takes on a particular gravity by reason of the authority of those who cause it or the weakness of those who are scandalized. It prompted our Lord to utter this curse: "Whoever causes one of these little ones who believe in me to sin, it would be better for him to have a great millstone fastened round his neck and to be drowned in the depth of the sea."86 Scandal is grave when given by those who by nature or office are obliged to teach and educate others. Jesus reproaches the scribes and Pharisees on this account: he likens them to wolves in sheep's clothing.87

2286 Scandal can be provoked by laws or institutions, by fashion or opinion.

Therefore, they are guilty of scandal who establish laws or social structures leading to the decline of morals and the corruption of religious practice, or to "social conditions that, intentionally or not, make Christian conduct and obedience to the Commandments difficult and practically impossible."88 This is also true of business leaders who make rules encouraging fraud, teachers who provoke their children to anger,89 or manipulators of public opinion who turn it away from moral values.

2287 Anyone who uses the power at his disposal in such a way that it leads others to do wrong becomes guilty of scandal and responsible for the evil that he has directly or indirectly encouraged. "Temptations to sin are sure to come; but woe to him by whom they come!"

That isn't very charitable. Calling someone a moron is hardly exemplifying the love of Christ.

Here's my first one:

Good Catholics don't tell lies -- condom use is Russian Roulette.

Short and sweet. Good call. :lol:

[M.SIGGA]

Are members of this organization excommunicated?

[Katholikos]

That brella is possibly drawn and painted on -- to replace the one used in the actual photo. But it would be a best-seller if offered. I'd never pay them for it!

I was getting irritated at more than the message -- I used the back arrow and I couldn't get that miserable website to go away; it kept bouncing back in front of my face again and again. Aggressive, huh?

Did you notice the obviously Hispanic guy? Clever and devious ad. Subtle messages.

I can't believe someone would put together a campaign like that. I'm gonna e-mail them too!

ipso facto
