What Amuses Us?
"None are more
hopelessly
enslaved than
those who falsely
believe they are
free."
— Johann
Wolfgang
von Goethe.
The Great Paradox
Chastity in the Single State Avoids;
• “Unwanted” pregnancy and single motherhood;
• Sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) and AIDS;
• Loss of self-respect and good reputation;
• Worrying about what your parents will think;
• Buying and hiding contraceptives;
• Contraception/abortifacient side effects;
• Abortion and its physical and emotional impacts;
• Raising children alone in poverty;
• Difficulty in finding a good husband or wife; and
• Fear of loss of your soul!

For Catholics, Using
Contraception is Mortally Sinful
“Every action which, whether in anticipation
of the conjugal act, or in its accomplishment, or
in the development of its natural
consequences, proposes, whether as an end or
as a means, to render procreation impossible,
is intrinsically evil.”
— Catechism of the Catholic Church,
¶2370, and encyclical Humanae
Vitae, ¶14.
Would you take
the chance?
“Hey, don’t
worry, pal!
With this
parachute,
you’ll get to
the ground
safely ten
times out of
eleven!”
Contraceptive
Technology, the “family
planner’s bible,” lists
fifteen major studies
that show that condoms
break 4.64 percent of
the time and slip 3.40
percent of the time, for
a total failure rate of
8.04 percent, or one out
of twelve times.

“As has been pointed out, those who
use contraceptives are more likely than
those who do not to resort to induced
abortion ... There is evidence that abortion
rates, as well as the use of contraceptives,
are increasing in many developing
countries ... the epidemiological evidence
points to the fact that induced abortion
services are most needed by those
adopting any form of fertility regulation.”
— Malcolm Potts, IPPF
Medical Director.

Public Health Disaster

a life of virtue than it is to
live a life without it.”
— Mahatma Gandhi.

  1. Title of Presentation: Why Chastity? Updated on February 1, 2011
  2. American Living in Front Royal – The Planned Parenthood Way We live in a small town in Northern Virginia named Front Royal, where Human Life International’s world headquarters is located. We have two cultures living side-by-side in this town – the typical secular American culture, and a thriving Catholic culture. My wife Kathy directs a small pregnancy help center there. Every single day, she sees young girls and women whose lives have been ruined by straying from God’s plan for our sexuality. They have all accepted the Planned Parenthood “live it up, just have sex responsibly” philosophy. The typical life of a woman in Front Royal who lives a life without God’s guidance looks like this; Age 9 – Sex education in the public school begins. Boys and girls learn about homosexuality, birth control, abortion and masturbation, among other things. Age 14 – The average young person is having sexual intercourse. Age 15 – Since birth control fails so often, especially among younger girls, the average sexually active girl finds herself pregnant. Age 16 – 1st abortion Age 16 – 1st STD Age 17 – 1st baby Age 18 – The average sexually active girl will not be able to attend college, because she was too busy going to parties and having a good time, and so her grades are very low. Many young girls also have babies to raise by this time, which severely limits their schooling. The boys and men who got them pregnant, of course, get away with no penalties. Many young men in Front Royal are fathers to children of four or five different women by the time they are 25, and so these children will grow up without a strong father figure to look up to. Age 21 – Young people are usually “shacking up,” or living together, by this time. Age 23 – While some of her friends are getting married, she discovers that no man wants a woman who has two or three babies, all by different men. Age 24 – By this time, the average young woman has had 8 to 12 sexual “partners.” Age 24 – The average woman has had her 3rd STD. Nationwide, one out of four women getting married at this age have an incurable sexually transmitted disease. Age 34 – Since the young woman does not know how to bring up her children properly, she is a grandmother by this age, as her daughter(s) make exactly the same mistakes she did. If she does get married, she will most likely be divorced, since people who have sexual intercourse frequently before marriage have a 70% divorce rate. So, typically, she will endure a bitter life of struggle with no husband or helpmate. Age 38 – Her last child is gone. Ages 39-75 – For the last half of her life, she is lonely, usually finding companionship only by raising her own grandchildren.
  3. Godly Living in Front Royal – The Culture of Life There is another culture in Front Royal – the Catholic one. St. John the Baptist Church has 1,200 families with an average of six children. Less than one percent of these marriages have ended in divorce or separation, usually because the husband or wife were not properly catechized when they were young. As far as we know, there are no cases of AIDS among the Catholics in Front Royal, and no sexually transmitted diseases. We have not had a single teenaged pregnancy for the past fifteen years. In contrast to the secular lifestyle, a child growing up in a Catholic family in Front Royal can expect to live a life like this; Age 9 – Virtues education begins. This is chastity taught as just one virtue embedded in many, including prudence, justice, temperance and fortitude. Additionally, the children learn by example from their parents, who do their best to live a virtuous life. As Father Marx has said, “Chastity is more caught than taught.” Ages 14-21 – No sex before marriage. Sometimes the kids are ridiculed by their secular friends who are already getting addicted to sex, drugs, alcohol and tobacco, but they know how to explain themselves properly. Age 22 – Complete college. Age 23 – Married. Age 24 – First child. The young couple use natural family planning (NFP) to space their children. They suffer from no AIDS or sexually transmitted diseases. Age 50 – 3%-6% divorce rate. They grow old together, and play with (not raise) their many grandchildren. A side effect of this kind of living is happy priests! Our priests spend much of their time baptizing and marrying couples, not doing marriage and crisis counseling.
  4. Who do You Think is Happier?
  5. There is Only One Secret to a Happy Relationship: The Four Elements of the Person. We have learned from experience that every human being is a unique creation of God. Each person born is singular and unrepeatable, and everyone lives a different life and has different experiences that shape their personalities. Our Lord told us “… you shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind, and with all your strength” [Mark 12:30]. This means that, however unique each person is, everyone is comprised of four primary elements; (1) The physical element (the body); (2) The mental element (the mind, or intellect); (3) The emotional element (the heart); and (4) The spiritual element (the soul). Theologians and missionaries recognize that we are all born with birth defects of varying degrees of severity. The most visible to man's eyes, of course, are the physical birth defects or handicaps. Everyone immediately knows if someone is wheelchair-bound or suffers from severe cerebral palsy. But as we move from physical to mental to emotional to spiritual birth defects and handicaps, they become less obvious to the eyes of man and more evident to the eyes of God. In other words, spiritual birth defects are much less visible to human eyes than physical birth defects — but are much more important and central to the identity of a person.      The key to a happy life – and a happy marriage – is lost on this world. These days, most relationships between men and women start with the physical (having sex). As the relationship continues, the man and woman may proceed to find out if they are mentally compatible. Usually, they get no further than this. They do not ever plumb the depths of the person – the emotional and the physical, upon which enduring relationships are based. This is why about 80 percent of marriages between people who cohabit, or “shack up,” end in divorce. By contrast, the Catholic Church knows full well the secret of living a long and happy life together. If a young man and young woman find that they are compatible spiritually first, this is the foundation of a lasting relationship. They then go on to find that they are compatible emotionally and mentally, and, finally, if they are in tune on these elements, they will find on their wedding night that they are indeed compatible physically. In the United States, married couples who use natural family planning (NFP) and observe the teachings of the Catholic Church, have about a three percent to six percent divorce rate.
  6. What Amuses Us? This is an age of entertainment, an age of distraction, an age of fevered activity. We immerse ourselves in experience and sensation, always making our physical selves feel good and engaged. The common complaint these days is “I’m so busy!” We all strive for deep inner contentment while losing it in what has been called the “tyranny of the immediate.” When we do try to reach for inner peace, the Devil is right there to tempt us with a galaxy of distractions. Most of these are not harmful, if they are taken in moderation. Indeed, some of them, like food and a certain amount of money, are necessary for our continued physical survival. The primary problem with all of these distractions, if we do not control them, is that they can lead to addiction -- and further remove us from the Source of all true peace and contentment, Jesus Christ. As St. Ambrose said, “The Devil’s snare does not catch you, unless you are first caught by the Devil’s bait” [Explanation of Psalm 118, 13, 37 (4th Century)]. There are many things that amuse us, but only in a shallow and temporary way: Drugs, sex, influence, possessions, the “New Age,” money, travel, fame, food, alcohol and power. According to Time Magazine [1], 18.7 million people in the United States [7.7% of the population] are alcoholics, and 12,000 more try it for the first time every day. 3.6 million Americans are drug addicts, and 8,000 more try it each day for the first time. 71.5 million people in the United States use tobacco products. 4 million Americans are food addicts, and about 15% of mildly obese people are compulsive eaters. Two million American adults are gambling addicts. An additional 4 to 6 million are considered to be “problem gamblers.” At least one in twenty adult Americans (or about ten million people) are compulsive shoppers. About 16 million Americans are sexual addicts – addicted to fornication, adultery, homosexual acts or pornography. Compulsive Internet use and overconsumption of caffeine products like coffee, Coke or energy drinks are often thought to be addictive behaviors. [1] Michael D. Lemonick, with Alice Park. “The Science of Addiction.” Time Magazine, July 16, 2007, pages 42 to 47.
  7. The Great Paradox "None are more hopelessly enslaved than those who falsely believe they are free." — Johann Wolfgang von Goethe.
  8. We have learned through hard experience that only two things give us lasting contentment, happiness and joy: Faith and family. Yet so many people have given these things up for much more shallow pursuits. Is it a coincidence that Faith and family are so strongly under attack today? Certainly not. There are eight primary teachers of morality in any country, regardless of its size or economic status. These are divided into concentrated and dispersed sources of influence, as shown below. The Six Concentrated Sources of Influence. These are organizations or entities where relatively few people influence the morals of an entire nation through mass means of communication. These individuals create and disseminate the ideas, attitudes and symbols that appeal to the rest of the population. The moral direction of every country is determined by an elite cadre consisting of about one tenth of one percent of the population, which leads; The executive branches of the national governments, regions, states and large population centers; The courts, particularly the national court systems; The legislatures at the national, regional and state levels; The leaders and boards of associations with specific missions, including organized medical and legal professionals, foundations, non-governmental organizations (NGOs) and public interest groups; The media, particularly the entertainment industry (motion pictures, television, radio), the print and news media (newspapers, magazines, book authors and publishers and newscasters) and the arts; and School leaders, from grade school board presidents to the policymakers at medical and legal colleges. The Two Dispersed Sources of Influence. These involve millions of people — primarily parents, clergy and more experienced individuals — influencing the morals of many others on a one-to-one basis in; 7) The Church; and 8) The family. Any violent, political or social revolution consists of a very simple two-step process. In the first step, a relatively small group of people seize or gain control of the concentrated organs of influence and then consolidate their position. In order to complete the process of revolution, they must then exert pressure on the dispersed organs of influence — the family and the Church — in order to make them "fall into line." Anti-lifers always work from the top down by seizing the six focused organs of influence. Once they have done this, they try to force the Church and the family to accept their vision. Pro-lifers must advance the Culture of Life by working from the opposite direction, from the "grass roots," thus making the Church and family invulnerable to anti-life meddling.
  9. Chastity in the Single State Avoids; People these days have many worries and stresses in their lives. I tell young people especially to enjoy their youth, because there will be time enough for worry and cares later. But young people now load themselves up with all manner of terrible stresses, and it is not supposed to be this way. People before marriage should enjoy the greatest happiness of all – being free of a mind that is weighed down with worry. A person who has sex before marriage may indeed enjoy its fleeting physical pleasure, but the Devil always extracts his price. Such people will be oppressed with a large number of heavy thoughts and concerns; “Unwanted” pregnancy and single motherhood; Sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) and AIDS; Loss of self-respect and good reputation; Worrying about what their parents will think; Buying and hiding contraceptives; Contraception/abortifacient side effects; Abortion and its physical and emotional impacts; Raising children alone in poverty; Difficulty in finding a good husband or wife; and Fear of loss of their soul!
  10. For Catholics, Using Contraception is Mortally Sinful! “Every action which, whether in anticipation of the conjugal act, or in its accomplishment, or in the development of its natural consequences, proposes, whether as an end or as a means, to render procreation impossible, is intrinsically evil.” — Catechism of the Catholic Church, ¶2370, and encyclical Humanae Vitae, ¶14.
  11. The Catholic Church does approve of one form of oral contraceptive …
  12. Would YOU take the chance?: “Hey, don’t worry, pal! With this parachute, you’ll get to the ground safely ten times out of eleven!”

  14. Formula: Cumulative Probability of Failure = 1 – (1 - Single-Use Failure)^Number of Uses. So the cumulative probability of failure for using condoms 50 times is 1 – (1 - 0.0913)^50 = 1 – (.9087)^50 = 1 - 0.0083 = .9917, or 99.17 percent. Note that a person who uses 100 condoms (typical use in one year) has less than a ONE IN TEN THOUSAND CHANCE of getting by without at least one condom failure.

As an example: Let "X" be the number of failures observed when a person uses seven condoms. If we assume that the probability of failure for each use is 8.04 percent, the "X" is binomially distributed with the parameters "n" = 7 and "p" = (0.0804). Thus, the probability of exactly four failures in seven uses is equal to 7! 4 (7‑4) ‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑ X (0.0804) X (1-0.0804) = 4! * (7‑4)! 35 * 0.000042 * 0.7777 = 0.0011, or 0.11 percent.

  18. “As has been pointed out, those who use contraceptives are more likely than those who do not to resort to induced abortion ... There is evidence that abortion rates, as well as the use of contraceptives, are increasing in many developing countries ... the epidemiological evidence points to the fact that induced abortion services are most needed by those adopting any form of fertility regulation.” — Malcolm Potts, International Planned Parenthood Federation Medical Director.

  21. One of the most effective and lethal snares of the Devil is homosexuality. Homosexuality is portrayed by Western media outlets as a harmless variation, a “sexual preference” that is morally no different from normal heterosexuality. The governments and the schools condone so-called “harmless dabbling” in “sexual orientation” when children young, and this leads to extreme confusion and deadly future problems for all four elements of the body – physical, mental, emotional and spiritual. Homosexuality is not a “human right,” as the United Nations and the feminists say ― it is instead the most powerful and destructive addiction of all.
  22. Homosexuality is a Public Health Disaster We may argue forever over whether or not homosexuality is “natural,” whether or not it is “normal,” and whether or not it is condemned in the Bible; but there is no debate whatsoever about one fact: It is deadly. Heavy drinkers lose an average of five years from their lives. Heavy smokers lose an average of seven years from their lives. Illegal drug addicts lose an average of ten years from their lives. Very overweight people lose an average of twelve years from their lives. Homosexuals lose an average of 25 years from their lives.
