[QUOTE="fated, post: 52818914, member: 196777"] Why make up a bunch of stuff and misinterpret Church doctrine on this? Oh, it's because the Pope made a point that one philosophy must have a basis that includes role modeling... which reminds me of why its important not to blame poor people and children for the current problem, or try and believe that overpopulation give us the authority to kill or sterilize innocent people with chemicals. It's pretty pompous to live in the US and blame world population for the problems of global warming when sucking down the resources of a dozen or so people from the developing world. And then, even some to center their argument on economics, but fail to acknowledge that without some population growth the economy is going to seriously suffer. Why the problem with Medicare? Social Security? That's right, you see a failure to at least replace to be partially to blame. So, it would seem like in order to make any arguement stick to the Pope, you'd need to embrace self-denial. He's standing there talking about how Africans will suffer most because of Westerners sucking down resources, and you say that they need to be sterilized and their unborn killed? Oh ya, that makes sense because you're rich and powerful. That's your egotism speaking. [/QUOTE]
