It isn’t just a matter of God wanting more babies. Unlike condoms or the pill, abstinence doesn’t turn a sacrament between a husband and wife, meant to create life, into a self-serving recreational act.

Yeah, yeah, shut the fuck up. You're never gonna get laid, except maybe by some naive idiot who doesn't know the first thing about what she's doing and only got with you because of A)church B)arranged marriage C)both.
I never really get the idea that "sex/pleasure is evil" you fundies seem to have in your heads. Just because it feels good doesn't mean it's self serving. Yeah, it feels good for you, but it also feels good for the other person.
Take a hint?
Your significant other must be so frustrated.
Know what else is self-serving and recreational? Pie.
Now, really. No one sane would give up pie. You can see where this is going.
When you break wind, does it make a sound like a Japanese car manufacturer?
I've heard that abstinence makes the fart go "Honda!"
His nick is "To Hell With Poverty"?
It could mean one of two things:
1. That poverty is terrible and he is cursing it. Whin would be decent.
2. People are in poverty and he doesn't care. Which wouuld be at cruelly indifferent.
Since this is an evangelical christian I've gotta figure it is the latter
No, abstinence turns sex into something only a man should enjoy, since the woman has been taught from the cradle that she should revile and hate her body and sexuality, and that the only function of sex for her is procreation. Birth control gives the freedom to explore safely, away from STD's and the threat that a little nipper could be biting your ankles nine months later.
"Sex is a sacrament", brought to you by someone who's already getting all they want, so denying other people that, is not a big deal to them. "Eating is a sacrament" by people who live in the middle of a plantation, who will never be hungry, and can't see what the big deal if God wants someone to starve. Heck they would do it if God asked them, but he hasn't asked them yet, that's all.
I have a sister in law who is born again and constantly spews this crap. She is quite hot-to-trot (remember that phrase hehe) for her husband, and constantly states that "sex is holy, as long as it's been a man and wife". I.E. the fact that I am getting all I want shows that God loves me, the fact that you want something that I deem wrong means God doesn't love you. Pretty staggeringly selfish when you really think about it. Not much different than a 3 year old that hasn't realized that other people matter too.
Well it's a good thing it's none of your business what grown, and especially married people, do in their bedrooms, you nosy ass prude. Grow up and realize that responsible birth control is way better than denying the basic need for intimacy. That's a big part of why many people get married in the first place, it's not about pumping out a kid every year till you're 45, for most people, anyway.
No, apparently to paraphase Bill Maher:
"What the abstinence movement have done is to create a generation of apple-cheeked young American girls who are all too willing to take it in the ass"

C'mon now very True Christian(TM) knows that women don't really have orgasms or enjoy sex, they just do it so they can have more babies and those women who use birth control and have sex just do it because they hate god.
When I was younger (I'm currently 37), I don't remember the Fundie Protestants spewing all the anti-birth control crap. But in recent years, they're almost a rabid as conservative Catholics against birth-control. Why the change?
Know what else abstinence doesn't do?
It doesn't reduce or eliminate the pain, nausea, agonizing cramps and general all-purpose misery that some women endure for several days out of every month.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
