Catholic Church and the Oral Sex
Quote:Pope Pius XII taught that it is gravely immoral for the husband, nor the wife do perform any sexual act to climax, outside of the natural marital act. The wife may not perform oral sex (fellatio) on her husband to climax. The husband may not perform oral sex on his wife to climax. In both cases, the couple sin gravely.
It is often claimed, especially online, that the wife can climax before or after natural marital relations, as a result of oral, anal, or manual sex (or "stimulation"). But that claim is a grave error. First, the Church has never taught such a thing. No proponent of that claim ever quotes or cites a magisterial document saying anything like that. Second, as you can see from the quote above, the Church has taught the exact opposite. Neither the husband nor the wife can climax outside of the natural marital act.
Third, everyone agrees that oral sex on either spouse is a grave sin, done in isolation from the marital sexual act. So it would make no sense to say that a gravely immoral act becomes moral when done a certain number of minutes or hours before natural marital relations, and immoral for a longer length of time. In Catholic moral theology, when an act is a grave sin on its own, it never becomes moral by being done about the same time as another good act.
- Catechism of the Catholic Church
Make no mistake, the so called oral and anal sex acts, pornography exalts is immoral and soul-crushing. These are certainly sins to be confessed. If we implement these perverse acts in our married life, we not only run the risk of losing our own soul to eternal damnation but also our beloved spouse and children.
Now let me state a few things bluntly so that we leave no room for doubt. During oral stimulation, if either or both spouses intend it to bring about ejaculation apart from intercourse, the behaviour becomes sodomy and is morally unacceptable.
If an unintentional ejaculation happens outside the vagina, the couple should make the act procreative by placing the semen in her while the semen is still viable. However, if a couple is prone to accidental ejaculations outside of her, they should be prudent, as this could be a near occasion for sin.
Those who have premature ejaculation or those who have no reasonable control over ejaculation should use discretion in choosing oral stimulation during foreplay, as it could be a near occasion for sin.
- Dr. Nelson Thomas
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

Yeah, I especially like the part where they say how there is no magisterial document that allows a woman to achieve an organism during oral or anal sex. I mean how can someone say that with a straight face?

Priest selling holy water
Quote:Fr. Edward Looney explains why he brings holy water with him into every hotel room, and shares the prayers he prays
Why? Three words: Evil is real. The presence of evil can remain in a room long after whatever might have taken place within it. You don’t know who was the previous occupant of your hotel room and what kind of baggage they brought with them. You don’t know what has occurred in your room. Holy water is a powerful tool in protecting against evil and can help dispel any remnant of evil.
The next time you travel, might I suggest packing a small bottle of holy water? When you arrive at your room, sprinkle the room with holy water. If you don’t have holy water, your local Catholic parish should have a holy water dispenser.
After sprinkling the room, say a prayer, asking God to send his protection upon your room and asking also to forgive whatever evil that may have taken place. Pray for the conversion of those who have been previous guests, and pray for those who will come after you.
It’s not a bad idea to pray, also, for the hotel workers moving from one room to another, exposed to supernatural who-knows-what.
Additionally, you may wish to invoke the intercession of St. Michael the Archangel or your guardian angel. With prayer and holy water, you will be protected from the remnants of evil and prepared should a spiritual battle arise.

Audience cheers after "Moms for Liberty" co-founder Tiffany Justice noted that a member had quoted Hitler in a newsletter. "I stand with that mom," she bragged to applause.

That thing some atheists say where it's dumb that god sacrificed himself to himself to appease himself. Fair.
In response to that, a theist said "I don't think that's dumb. If you were God who else would you sacrifice?"

"I believe in God" is an exceedingly stupid start to any conversation for them.
