Knitting a Conundrum

Funny how those who are determined to live in immoral ways get mad at the church for not blessing their actions.

Sex outside of marriage is wrong, the church teaches. "Contraception leads to the downfall of the family and all the other reasons the church says NO." says the church.

"But people are going to have sex outside of marriage anyway." says the world. "If you tell them to use condoms, we could cut down on disease."

"We tell them to do what is right." says the church.

"It's your fault that people are dying," says the world. "Because you won't bless the sacred condom, they get aids."

"Aids happens because people live immoral lives, against the teachings of God," says the church. "We can't bless what is against the teachings of God."

"It's still your fault," says the world. "If only you would bless the sacred condom, then all those people who are having sex like they are outside of marriage, would use condoms and not get AIDS because the church said so."


The question people like this refuse to consider is, if people are willing to sin by having sex outside of marriage, what difference would the church's sanctions on contraception have on whether to use condoms or not?
