Married? Don't want any or more kids? Don't have sex! Until MENOPAUSE? NO CONTRACEPTIVES for you either. How crazy are these people? They think this will actually LOWER the Divorce rate!!!!!!!!

I hope their insurance covers psycho therapy. They will need it.

1. You might be surprised

You might be surprised, for anyone with a few kids on their hands, how little they're having, at least with each other.

2. I swear this reads like the Onion. "The Holy Observer: God's #1 Source for Christian News"

"We did a thorough study of what was going on in the good marriages of our members and the answer invariably came back: no sex."

12. That's what I was thinking. Why would God need a news source?

3. Oh, and no sex AFTER menopause either. Sex is ONLY for making babies.

4. This is a satire.

5. I kind of thought so.

Sounded way too crazy.

8. But of course

If it had been a REAL article, CWA surely would have weighed in on boner-in-a-bottle pills, to be prescribed no more than once a month and only to married men who could demonstrate fitness for parenthood (including sufficient income and proper temperament), during their wife's fertile period as certified by a licensed and qualified gynecologist.

At least, that's the logical next step, right?

9. What?

10. I was thinking of all the fundy restrictions proposed for abortions

You know, so that those silly women who want a legal medical procedure performed, can be suitably shamed for being such slutty sluts. So before they can decide for themselves how best to live their lives, they have to have a sonogram, an ultrasound, watch a video of fetal development, listen to a lecture from some prig who's ashamed of his or her genatalia, get medically raped by a transvaginal probe, and write 100 times "I must not have sex unless I want a baby." The rationale is that none of these proposals presents any kind of a legally impermissible barrier, so they're all allowed. I'm just conjecturing that Viagra or Cialis prescriptions should be similarly regulated.

Just so that all those proposed restrictions on women don't look like rank misogyny.

6. Like has been said before, you can't make this stuff up

......then to top it off she says...................
"Of course we're allowing for that," Lahaye said. "We don't want to be unreasonable, but we're going to encourage people to try not to enjoy it at all."

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

7. It's satire.

Kinda funny, though.

13. Does that insurance cover hair removal?

Just wondering.
