@billcaskey There is a part of me that is starting to question that maybe the reason women professional league haven’t taken off has little to do with the skill and talent of the athletes but more to do with back stabbing and jealousy of front office coaches and other teammates
I’m sorry, I don’t know why you’re acting like this is a silly question when a few comments up you literally said “Catholics believe it’s a sin if it’s to completion and replaces the act of sex because then it’s purely for pleasure and removes any chance of creating life”
And ok, like this makes sense for the OP’s question, but you can only get pregnant within a certain timeframe and I’m asking why wouldn’t that same logic apply there? You know you can’t create life, you know it’s only for pleasure. But you’re saying that’s fine because you didn’t use a condom?
I’m truly trying to understand, as someone who is exploring Catholicism. But when you all say things like this and then dismiss a question like mine, you sound like the Jews tying string around their town to fool God.
Does God not know you can’t get pregnant? Do you not know? Then what is the guideline? If you can only have sex when there is a chance of creating life, that sounds to me like you can only have sex within an ovulation window and never again if it’s determined you’re infertile.
That doesn’t sound right to me, which is why I’m asking for clarification in something you, and others, have said.
