  (And why isn't rhythm spelt rithem?--- a dyslexic.   No CL I don't expect you to answer this last bit, there are entomological reasons, but still. . . )

Damn you. Now I am wondering why rhythm isn't spelled rithem. Why the extra h and what does it need a y for? I will be curious about this all night

I too once dropped a deuce that was cranky, profane, well read in history, and unwilling to suffer fools gladly.  But until now, I hadn't connected the experience with Min.

By chance, was yours devastatingly handsome?

I've been called worse.  Which reminds me.  Where is that little tit-turd, drippy, lately?

In case you didn't already know, I was playing.

I would never call someone that and actually mean it. I like you, but even if I didn't, I would never say that as a serious comment to anyone. Smile

I'm afraid I'd have to conclude that using the rhythm method is just another form of birth control, although a less robust one.

If the woman is essentially infertile when the sex happens, then there is no intention to create life. I can't fathom how it's OK to get around the rule one way but not another. Sure, it may fail and you might get pregnant, but that's true of virtually all contraception.

Fertility monitoring is a form of birth control, yes. Smile

But the thing to understand is that birth control, in and of itself, is not against church teaching. It's contraception that is against Church teaching, and we define contraception as anything that changes the nature of a sexual act in order to render it infertile.

Simply refraining from having sex on the fertile days, does not do this.^
