It should be illegal to be this stupid.

Oh well, not knowing how pregnancy happens is still major ignorance in my book. I don't care about your culture, fine maybe it's not their fault but that doesn't change facts.

John Ashcroft thought calico cats were harbingers of the Devil. So everybody's a little looney.

That's not a joke, either.

- You said it...ignorance. Not something one can necessarily avoid in this (alleged) given situation.
If you were one of these people - you wouldn't know, simply because this information was not made available to you.
Saying it should be illegal to be this STUPID is both judgemental, and simply wrong.
It's kind of like making fun of a guy in a wheelchair on account of his inability to walk.

Stupidity and ignorance are two very different things - but that's ok, I'll look past your ignorance on this matter.;)

I was joking about it actually being illegal. I still think they're stupid, whether it's they're fault or not. You're right, making fun of them for it is kind of like making fun of someone in a wheelchair but not quite... It's more like making fun of someone who is fat, because they can change. ;) (not counting like extremely rare cases)

Yknow what?
I try to be cool with most people, and I try not to judge others to a point that it's almost painful for me to do so. But everything has limits, and so do I.
I've realised now that I really dislike your shallow views, not just in view to certain topics, but to life in general.
I'm not looking to turn this into an argument - if you are, you may do so on your own.
I don't hate you. I'm just not going to even bother commenting on your arrogant self-absorbed nonsense any longer.
I hope one day the real world comes along and bitchslaps you, 'cos I really think you need it.
You've got a lot to learn.
Maybe we'll talk some time in future if I see any signs of you growing a little, as a PERSON.
Til' then (IF and when), I've got nothing more to say to you.
Reply if you want...I don't much give a fuck either way.

I find the very thought of this level of ignorance terrifying. I have known enough ignorant people in my life to say i think this may have some credbility.

No offense to any catholics, but where the church is involved, i have seen some mind numbing stupidity, which encourages ignorance.

The pope actually got down on Italy several years back for not having enough kids. 6.6 BILLION people in the world (1 billion in india and china respectively), and they still think it is a good idea to keep people in the dark about sex and reproduction? And actively encourage people to reproduce like rabbits?

Sorry, if that isnt irresponsible, i dont know what is.

Making fun of them for not knowing is not called for (although i admit, had i not read Cheeba's posts first, mine would have been a bit less mature. Okay, VERY immature)

As far as cavemen doing it... Think back. They had some degree if instinct still in them. Plus, we are born with less and less inbred knowledge, and rely more and more on others for knowledge as a species.

Hell, this is a horror forum, so why not pick something relevantr to relate this too. Take the movie Carrie for instance. Peopel have known for ages what menstruation is, and what it is for, but in that story, Carrie is terrified when she starts bleeding because she has no idea what is happening to her, because no one bothered to tell her what it was and why it happened.

The more advanced we become, the easier it is to manipulate people's thoughts and basic understanding. Look at scientology. L Ron Hubbard wrote some books (Sci-fi books....) and now, some of the richest, most powerful people in hollywood are Scientologists. The religion was created in their lifetimes, but they buy it hook line and sinker.

If the article is true, then ignorance and apathy have reached a terminal level in the Phillipenes. And anyone who opposes educating those people is evil. It's not like they are protecting the truth about aliens or whether bigfoot is real or not, or even Col. sanders' secret ingredients, its the basis for life as we know it, and a fundemental truth that EVERYONE has the right to know about.

If it is true, there need to be signs and billboards erected that say "THis is how you make a baby", then show it, then "This is how you prevfent one" and show condoms and their use. And fuck anyone and any belief system that says birth control is evil. We arent talking about retroactive "oops, I fucked up" solutions like aboprtion, we are talking about prevention, which no one will ever be able to convincingly argue against. Not to my satisfaction, anyway.
