>implying exegetical scholars use this as a prime example for abstinence

>>1676168

What's even stupider is that they DO support the "coitus interruptus" method of contraception where the man pulls out before cuming.

>>1676234

No they don't. They support the "Natural Method" or rhythm method, including taking vaginal temperatures to see whether she's ovulating.

>>1676168

Sure it dies but it's not spilled on the ground, also read Humanae Vitae Onan has nothing to do with it.

How should a man go about not wasting his sperm if he's to be faithful to his wife and can only impregnate her every year or so?

>>1676575

sperm is beneficial for a woman's emotional well-being, so it's not wasted even if she's already preggers.

>>1676641
So women are literal semen demons?

>>1676234

Proven to be at least as effective as condom usage, pulling out is a reliable method

>>1677390

Women are every kind of demon

>implying the restriction didn't apply to Onan, and only to him
>implying that even if it did apply it's not a part of the Old Covenant and as such only applies to Jews
>implying the other nations even have to give a flying fuck about anyhting in the OT

I get that the idea is to prevent masturbation and sleeping around but what's wrong with using contraceptives with your one true love ?

>>1676168
Because the actual goal of that rule is to maintain a healthy population of Catholics. If you were allowed to release your sexual urges in a way that didn't produce children, the Popist population count would start dropping.

You get upper-middle class couples with BMWs and summer homes but only 2 kids. Having more kids cuts down on decadence and materialism. This isn't the main argument though.

Which is still retarded, in Biblical terms sex is only for procreation, and a waste otherwise, so choosing to have sex while TRYING to avoid pregnancy is going against God's will.

>>1677419
Because you shouldn't be having sex except to reproduce.

>>1677477
>>1678636
To be fair, the Bible was written in a time when survival meant you should always either be working or reproducing. Nowadays it doesn't make sense economically/socially, since large families aren't as beneficial and we have more free time.

>>1676168

using contraception is a sin because you are misusing sex, turning it into just a pleasant activity instead of a reproductive act that is pleasant.

Abstinence doesnt misuse sex but it is no sex.
