Make Them Stop: From The Irresponsible Asshats File












There are over 20,800 denominations of Christians! As far as I'm concerned, each group gets wackier than the last. This bunch pictured above are called 'quiverfulls' , a conservative Protestant offshoot that does not believe in reproductive intervention. They believe that only God can control family planning, " God is the only opener and closer of the womb", from Psalm 127.

Why is it always the woman's body that God's teachings control? Oh yeah, because religion is essentially about men controlling women. Anyway, I'd be more impressed if there was a Psalm that said God controls a man's penis as in only God can cause it to rise and lower. Then God would have some serious explaining to do.

As for the quivers, they say they're a small but growing sect. Duh, only because they're having so many friggin kids.

Oh. My. God. The Quivers give me the Shivers. That poor woman in the picture -- 10 kids -- no wonder she's sitting down.
