My primary duty as a father is to raise good holy kids that will get to heaven. Their life on earth is secondary. If they die and go to hell, then their lives have been wasted no matter what worldly success they attain.
You are the one who lacks intelligence. You put all your faith in a world that ends at death. It is truly sad that so many reject God, in favor of the world. Especially since most of our lives are a struggle at best.
If that is your argument, then 42 virgins here I come!

Originally posted by FischerMHBeing unarmed works for me. I've never even seen a real gun. Tell me, MH, when was the last robbery or murder down your street? If it wasn't within, ooo, let's say, the last 5 years (for murder, 2 years for robbery because of the normally non-violent nature of the crime), you have no need of a gun.
Families have had both guns and kids without kids killing themselves. One has to be prudent. In today's society, I think being unarmed is presents more of a danger, than having guns.

Some people should not be allowed to breed.

You have no knowledge of me or my family, but hubris leads you to judge us. I find it laughable.
How many saints needed anti-depressant drugs to cope. You scoff at living a spiritual life, while the world around you drowns in its sin and lack of purpose.
But I do agree, only validly married couples should be allowed to reproduce.

non sequitur
It follows. This isn't church. I will not be doing the thinking for you. Stretch yourself a little.

Originally posted by David CThey are set out in any good catechism(pre 1950). Catholics have to be married in the Church. Non-Catholics can validly enter marriage outside the Church. Both situations are subject to the absence of any impediments to the sacrament. And of course, a person can remarry, only if their spouse dies(provided that the death was not intentionally caused by the surviving spouse). This is a brief summary. Refer to a catechism book for more details.
Why? And what does "validly married" even mean?

Well, I suppose you'd know....

No. I merely called it like I saw it. I only used the information that you presented. You have an obvious disdain for this world, preferring the imaginary next one. I truly do worry for your children.
I find it laughable.
Good. You sound like you need to get rid of some of that tension.
How many saints needed anti-depressant drugs to cope.
What has this got to with anything? How many saints had the opportunity to get anti-depressant drug, even if they did need them?
You scoff at living a spiritual life,
No, I just scoff at the silly outmoded idea of God.
And you, of course.
while the world around you drowns in its sin and lack of purpose.
FUNDY ALERT! FUNDY ALERT! Quick, man, kill them all! That'll solve all the worlds problems.

You better hope that you are right, because if I am right your intellectual pride is leading you to an eternity of torment. If you are right, I am happy with my life and my kids are happy. Thus I win either way, and you stand to lose big time if you are wrong. I wouldn't trade my position for yours for anything.
