Your catechism. " ... Sexual pleasure is morally disordered when

But sexual pleasure is unitive, even during periods of infertility.
It does not say OR it say "procreative and unitive purposes"
ie, artificial.

See what I mean? I knew Earl would do this so I specifically pointed out the
"AND" part.

You're dreaming about your greatness, mikey. Apparently you can't relate to
the non-procreative periods in a woman's cycle as being valid and unitive in
purpose.

• If a woman has two functioning ovaries and she is not pregnant, there
is no such thing as her non-orocreative period -- especially if she has an
orgasm during coitus. [ref: Dr. Jane Comfort "The Facts of Love".]

Thanks, but I'll stick with God's point. I'm not a big fan of dual
"orocreative" periods - commas, ok, but periods - no.

Even Saint Augustine realized that a woman can get pregnant during her
menstrual period:

That must thereby mean she is in her procreative period. Good grief but you
confuse yourself.

- "Defective children will result if conceived during menstruation. Women
should not be enlightened or educated in any way. They should be
segregated because they are the cause of unholy erections in holy men."
- Saint Augustine (354-430)

Leave it to "really lost' to hide from the subject and head off on a tangent.
