AZ Pastor: Using Birth Control Turns Women Into Whores

Read Time:1 Minute, 51 Second

Jesus loving Arizona Pastor Steven Anderson recently warned his congregation that birth control was not only turning women into “whores,” it was also destroying the country.  Praise Jesus!

The Faithful Word Baptist Church posted Anderson’s sermon online this week.  Their leader explained that contraception was “not something Christians should be practicing,” even though he acknowledged that 99 percent of Christians believed it was acceptable.

Anderson went on to point out that God, in the book of Genesis, had made childbearing painful to punish women for their Original Sin, adding that the husband “shall rule over thee.”

He further argued that feminism had “given women the power” to decide when to have children for themselves, allowing them to have careers and follow other interests.

“It used to be a young women, she gets married, she has children, and that’s her job,” he lamented. “They literally count my wife as unemployed! She’s not unemployed, she doesn’t want to be employed. I mean, she’s a wife, she’s a mother.”

Anderson said that danger of birth control was that it had “systemic effects” on a woman’s health and her “character.”

“Not only does birth control do damage to women, it hurts their body if they’re using the pills. And it also affects their character, causing them to be an idle, tattler, gossip, turning aside after Satan,” he insisted.

Women would “get into sin” if they were not “busy” raising children, Anderson said.

Anderson noted that Annette Funicello, a star of the Mickey Mouse Club in the 1950s, had promoted birth control for a 1960s-era advertisement. At one point, he even began to sing “fornicate with me” to the tune of the Mickey Mouse Club March theme song.

“It promotes promiscuity, it promotes whoredom!” he advised, reading from the Bible: “Do not prostitute thy daughter to cause her to be a whore, lest the land fall to whoredom and the land become full of wickedness!”

“A land can call to whoredom!” he exclaimed. “And the United States today, fits that bill. If anybody has ever fit that bill, it’s the United States of America.”

Religion! Loving and kind one day at a time.

What’s funny is he fell for a hoax. That photo of Annette Funicello talking about birth control is actually a photoshopped fake!

Assholes like this think women were made as playthings, that they were to submit to men, to remain silent unless spoken to, and that their opinions aren’t important. They’re not to make themselves look attractive. They think women are evil because they lead men into sin. He thinks the best way they can save their wicked selves from going to hell was to shut up, accept their second-class status and bear their husband’s children!

He clearly dislikes assertive women and feminine sensuality, thinks they’re intellectually inferior, and that they’re their husband’s property.

Today’s Christians have all been influenced by misogynistic claptrap like this. One of the reasons churches have been so successful over the centuries is that they degrade and hold back women; half their congregation! Churches have traditionally refused women leadership, encouraged pregnancy and discouraged them from entering the workforce or getting more than a basic education.

When women become educated, or bread winners, the whole family is empowered. Statistically speaking, the more learned and affluent people become, the less likely they are to go to church (at least outside the United States.) The empowerment of women throughout much of Europe over the last fifty years has meant a marked rise in standards of living and a sharp fall in church attendance.

Mark you make some excellent points. I never quite thought of feminism and religion in that construct. Thanks.

Could I have his address please? He just called my wifey ‘a whore’ so I need to pop over and share an understanding with him.

It’s obvious that everyone is waiting for the only person at MMA trusted by God enough to answer these attacks on fellow God loving men like the Pastor that doesn’t like birth control.

If you tramps must use birth control then as a holder of several thousand shares or Easton Pharmaceuticals which makes a fine product which promotes moisture and elasticity for women, thus making sex more enjoyable for them, I say if you’re going to piss off us right wing Jesus freaks and risk burning in Hell, then you may as well get as much pleasure as possible from doing the nasty.

And if you could Jess, tell all your trampy friends about this wonderful company. Buy lots of it’s stuff. Any profits I make I will be sure to tithe and make a donation to some woman thing.

Is that what people are calling it these days donating to some woman thing? Yes I will mention, it but only thing my more trampy friends would consider for making sex more enjoyable would be someone or two extra with them at the time.

“Whores” who have the choice not to sleep with him are not whores, they are free beings.

Lilith Frasier?? yeah she would kick his ass and then some. Oh you meant THAT Lilith 🙂 Hell with that one, his wife should show him Lysistrata or his rent boy should not “lift his luggage” for a minute. You just know he is a future case of, I have sinned but I have asked forgiveness because the slut made me do it, like the rest of these holier than thou bastards.

Yes, you should give all imagination and all dream that you have for your own life, and let the man who wrote the “TRUE WORD” make all decisions for you and what you should do with your time. And if you don’t agree, then you’re a whore. And that woman who has, what, 19 kids had all the sex she wanted, but she’s not a whore because she can prevent any of the pregnancies, she felt real responsibility to be truthful, and she lived all of people who should know better than to send huge amounts of money to celebrities rather than taking care of themselves and their own families! Since she and her husband were able to swindle the populace, and despite the fact that they have put a great strain on our economy for no good reason other than they can glow over their equals pretending that they are wonderful, when, in fact, they are doing the opposite of being good citizens!
Sorry. That particular family really gets under my skin… What, she’ afford toly not a war because maybe she has sex only with one man. Well, assuming that paternity tests one fact proved he was the dad of all of them (which I don’t doubt, I just want to talk). Is there any way that a normal person could afford to have that many kids?
And ignore all typos, because my voice recognition is being a royal pain!

As always, you must believe and behave the way the religious reich rascals demand or, “You’re going to hell!” Why he didn’t blame Obama for all of this must have been an oversight on his part. He missed a good bet on that one.

Proud whore here, wondering if old Pastor Anderson thinks getting wood with help from Viagra or the like is his god’s way. These people have no clue that sometimes we have to take the whoreslut pills because we need (TMI for the squeamish alert) to keep our ride on the crimson tide regular and as pain free as it can be, being a sky wizard’s curse and all. That it helps not bring little ankle biters into the world is a bonus for some.

PS One other thing, this whole female job category of wife and mom really pisses me off. They just DO NOT now and I don’t think ever will get it that some of us are separate beings than our husbands and kids are and some of us do not want to be the version of female life they expect a “good” girl to be. I am not yet to be here’s mom or K’s wife. My name is Jessica Marie Le….-…….. I’ve told you guys about his family reaction about me not taking hubby’s name because we are one person now. It is a sore spot for many of them and I just let them know, this is your issue not mine, I had a perfectly good name before I met him and I am keeping it.

And so you should. I think this whole take the man’s name thing is a foolish tradition. Women should be able to keep their identity.
