So what? If you don't agree with them, then don't associate with them. Why must you always think that your way is better. Obviously, there are millions, upon millions of people who disagree with your premise.
Once again, why do you care what the Catholic Church preaches? You have said that you are a Buddhist. Go practice Buddhism and leave the Catholics alone.
Consider the theme of the OP. Women have a duty to reproduce. According to Catholic doctrine, married women and men have a duty to reproduce. Do you think the Catholic Church tears down the male role?
Stay on topic please.
Personally, I'm not religious because I don't like being told how to live my life, but I don't attack other's religion.

I believe it is a privilege to procreate. I created one of the most stunningly beautiful and intelligent women I know. She has created three brilliant children that might one day grow up and be the leader of the free world, or a scientist that discovers another Earth-like planet and how to get there.
Why is it so wrong, WS, to believe having children is good for mankind? You reduce everything to your own little worldview without thinking of the big picture. Survival of mankind hinges upon procreating. If there is one religion, the RCC, that considers it a duty and not a privilege, then I'm OK with it.

If there was a qualifier that "healthy women, in relationships that would be mutually beneficial to child and relationship, should feel a duty to procreate" I'm with that sentiment.
I don't think that folks that take can't take care of themselves should have children. Obviously that includes most baby mommas. It also includes those that would abuse their children. Sadly it includes those capable in income, education; but too selfish to want to share. It's their right to choose not to, but yes, the country and themselves are worse off for it.

Holy hell! Mother of all people and things fucked up!
Wind Song, honey, not sure if you are still posting because from reading you've quit the board and kept posting more times than Wilt Chamberlain had girlfriends.....................YOU ARE FUCKED UP IN THE HEAD! It all stems from your lifestyle choice, until you get that cleared up and fixed you will never be content in your life, you will always have issues with everything because you are not right in your soul.
Oh and BTW...God bless the people of the great state of North Carolina, another one for the correct side.
I will say that when it comes to practicing on the procreation part women are the only option.
No union of two men or two women ever produced a baby. Now my wife and I have a five year old son and we do not intend to have any more children but we certainly arent going to stop "practicing"...
