Are you talking adaption? It depends on the reason for the infertility. If you can raise a child in a loving family, why not? i have a cousin who was suppose to be infertile as was his wife, but at 50 he was told he was to become a father, she was 43. Don't worry, when the boy was born there was little doubt who the father was, the spitting image of dad and very much loved. Infertility is a tricky definition.from an evolutionary perspective is helping infertile couples have children a good thing?
how could you be? your raison d'etre is deluding yourself constantly into thinking that your always right!..... but not wrong again.
Indeed it is. It is truly stunning both how difficult a pregnancy is to obtain how many things have to go just right, and yet contrariwise how easy it is for those who are not planning one to become pregnant.Infertility is a tricky definition.
Not really, the Hierarchy yes for many. The people of the Roman Catholic Church no.The Catholic church is systematically alienating itself from the views of mainstream western society.
Well, you`re up to your usual standards of shite. Anyone who actually pays attention knows that I admit my errors enough times to show that you`re full of it, again. Even DJ sees through your smokesscreens of crap. I`m certainly not going to sift through all my post to show that your full of shite but here`s two easy ones to find and list here,how could you be? your raison d`etre is deluding yourself constantly into thinking that your always right!
So then the western world reference is Europe and North America then.

There are very few actual Catholics out there. They will claim to be Catholic but if you actually question them on what they believe it is a different matter. Even my own mother who true green as she was thought the pope was full of shit and disagreed with the Church on so many issues as to make you wonder why she even bothered anymore.Not really, the Hierarchy yes for many. The people of the Roman Catholic Church no.
Fuck you, you stupid cunt, shut your pie hole before I take a bat to your head.there is no such thing as an aggressive atheist

An Anniversary to Remember
`You`re absolutely right. I stand corrected. Laporte`s family lived three houses away from me and there were armed guards all over the street and armoured vehicles within line of sight for weeks. On one hand We felt safe at home, but had to get on with our lives in the meantime. The attitude was very British much with a sense of we can`t do much about it so on with our life except that on one day 19 mailboxes blew up on the street. Occasionally. one of your teachers or neighbour were taken in for questioning soon released."
Attawapiskat, The Conservative Governments Response To This Emergency......
Then I stand corrected, but it could boil down to family or tribal connections or they invested for whatever reason during the set up of Rama and get a piece as a result.
adaption? do you mean adoption or adaptation?Are you talking adaption? It depends on the reason for the infertility.

... but not wrong a-hole.your fucking hilarious..................................
Yes adoption, damn spelchek.adaption? do you mean adoption or adaptation?
your example has nothing to do with the question.
Depending on your outlook, it's either really early Monday or really late Sunday, but it's 5:00pm somewhere, so another round for our friend FO.We are not exactly talking about Hittite pottery styles here or Estonian poetry. How did you not know this.
WRT the western world Niall Ferguson who is rather pro religion makes the point that the one place in the western world where religion isn't dieing is in the US. Part of the reason is that unlike Europe, in North America there is much more competition for souls. On the other hand much of this has resulted in a deep decline of Christianity and a huge rise in the worship of Santa Christ. Jesus as provider of gifts and friendship and nothing else. This does have a truthyness among the more aggressively growing churches.
An 'actual' Catholic? I think the more common term used is practicing Catholic..There are very few actual Catholics out there. They will claim to be Catholic but if you actually question them on what they believe it is a different matter. Even my own mother who true green as she was thought the pope was full of shit and disagreed with the Church on so many issues as to make you wonder why she even bothered anymore.
Just today I was reading an article complaining about how most of the "Catholic" teachers in the RC school system are not really catholic
http://www.ottawasun.com/2012/02/24/losing-faith
[I don't pay for the sun, but copies of it float around and I am even more of a chronic reader than I am a chronic masturbator and I jerk off like a demented monkey.
". In Ontario, as well as most of Canada, state-funded Catholic education is generally about as Catholic as an Orange Lodge meeting in East Belfast. "
"They are divorced, gay, abort and use contraceptives, live together, never attend mass, reject Catholic teaching, are indifferent or even hostile to the religion they are supposed to be part of."
I suppose the people of the RC are not alienating themselves from western society, because they have already been alienated from the church and have joined the mainstream. Much like Howard the bacon loving "Jew" and Raj the beef loving "Hindu" from The Big Bang Theory. [And no they are illustrative examples, not evidence, I do understand anecdotal and unlike your typical English Major I also understand the difference between fiction and reality] No Bazinga here though.
Well there is no doubt that attendence is declining in the US and Canada and its a real problem for the Church so if you want to soften this reality by seizing on stats from China and porer areas of South America feel free. I do think you are ignoring the fact that a huge number your peers, who used to support the church, no longer do so for an increasing number of reasons.You might want to actually look that up and learn something first before you make the claim. You're ill informed. It been discussed before on TERB and found not to be the case.
