I'm kind of growing to like this guy. Putting the idea of whether we should have a pope aside, so far he's been doing an awful lot of things right since he got the job. You're not going to turn something as big a religion round overnight but he does seem to have a few decent ideas in his head. |

As many a priest will testify, you can't put a bun in the choirboy's oven. |

No need for anyone to breed like rabbits. Yet in many parts of teh world they still do. I just find it daft that the benifits system here almost encourages it. |

A lot of Catholics interpret rules rather loosely, I mean , I haven't meant anyone for years who doesn't eat meat on Fridays and other nonsense Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Yeah I married a catholic (against my better judgement) and she sometimes makes a token effort to be picky about what she eats in lent, but it doesn't last long. |

Abstinence, dear boy, abstinence. There are also other things that can be done to help avoid pregnancy, although most aren't very reliable. We did a tour around Artland a couple of years ago, the guide told as that the women in the gable houses took a specific poison if they thought they might become pregnant in order to provoke a miscarriage. The world is a weird, and often dreadful, place. ![]() In Austria, friends of mine couldn't marry unless they told the priest that the reason for the marriage was to produce children. Love and wanting to be a couple isn't enough for a Catholic in Austria. On the other hand, I do know some catholics that do use contraceptives. |

I think Catholicism varies massively across countries and generations too. We were taught about contraceptives in my Catholic school and I only knew one family with 9 kids and they integrists so who refused the second Vatican council reform of 1962. http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Second_Vatican_Council Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Its' the same as any religion,some followers are more strict/devout than others. I know Muslims who drink alcohol. I know Hindus who eat meat. I know catholics who use contraception. It's possible to live by the 'spirit' of a religion without actually sticking to every single one of the dictats the mad old blokes in hats say you have to. Jon |
