"Prostitution is fine. The sexual revolution is entirely different since it leads to otherwise normal people using each other as prostitutes. The goal of life in the West is now little more than sexual satisfaction, the greatest good in a broken, godless culture. This leads to ennui on the part of the sexual winners and anger and resentment from the losers. Cultural decay and plummeting birth rates are an unintended consequence."

>Cultural decay and plummeting birth rates are an unintended consequence

t. brainlet

Plummeting birth rates are a result of increased living standards which disincentives individuals from having more children as they can better distribute their resource with fewer children.

This has been shown to be the case with any highly-developed society, Germany, Japan etc. and the opposite is shown to occur in poor countries such as Africa and the middle-east.

don't bother,

they're a bunch of jews trying to push the "le it's better to not have babies" meme

seriously every jew and brainwashed cuck does it.

>>9394434
Yes it does as he clearly stated here >>9394335 that poorer nations have sex purely because of a sexual drive but this is clearly not the case as statistics show that increased living standards decrease birth rates meaning that defining birth rates in terms of drive is stupid seeing as the rate is not continual throughout different decades.

>>9394403
Two questions: do you know where the middle East is? Do you know what GDP growth is?

Waking up to a loud crash rarely means something good is happening. It’s never “CRASH! Mom made pancakes!” or “CRASH! We decided to adopt a Golden Retriever!”

>>9394441
>they're a bunch of jews trying to push the "le it's better to not have babies" meme
>seriously every jew and brainwashed cuck does it.

No one stated that it's better to not have babies, brainlet.

It is simply a description, that is, societies which have increased living standards tend towards a correlation of having declining birth-rates.

No one stated that it is a 'good' or a 'bad' thing. That is your own reddit value judgement which you have included into the discussion.

In other words, you are a brainlet that should be gassed.

"Et in Arcadia ego."

I just want to say that humans have this instinct to produce children in crisis which leads to children growing like soy in particularly poor countries and this can be proven easily enough with historical examples. E.g. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Post%E2%80%93World_War_II_baby_boom

>>9394237
>"Every issue in contemporary western society can be directly traced back to the franco-masonic revolution."

>>9394457
Lol seriously how do you infer that middle eastern countries are poor from this? GDP growth for a single year has very little to do with living standards. The places with high fertility are just places that don't believe in birth control. Trying to extract some deeper prognostication than that is the real pseud move.

>>9394307
This is still bad though. The government should have monetary and social incentives for having children, like in Nazi Germany

Japan will even pay you to have kids.

>>9394505
>The government should have monetary and social incentives for having children, like in Nazi Germany

They do though, it's called tax reduction or benefits for children.

>>9394504
>The places with high fertility are just places that don't believe in birth control. Trying to extract some deeper prognostication than that is the real pseud move.

Wrong. Although birth control is certainly a factor, many east-Asian countries use very little birth control but have declining fertility rates as their living standards increase. This is true with many other countries too.

>>9394544
what the fuck are the colours meant to represent?

>>9394544
>have declining fertility rates as their living standards increase.
you could also say fertility rates correlate to the degree of separation from jewish/israeli interests.

who's going to say correlation != causation first?

>>9394559
He has no fucking idea, he thinks random info graphs will somehow prove his wild assertions that having a bunch of money makes you not want to have kids. This is a shit show, I'm out. I got work to do.

>>9394559
>who's going to say correlation != causation first?

Retarded reddit-tier fallacy.

This is not a similar instance. There is much evidence surrounding this with many studies that can easily be found on NCBI or JSTOR.

Jesus weping at the death of Lazarus shows God's care and love for creation and is a reminder of how far God went in that love.
Also don't get me started on 'Away in a Manger,' since clearly if Jesus wept as an adult then it's ridiculous to preclude him from crying as an infant.

Here's something that ties into that sentiment, from Psalm 8:

4 what are human beings that you are mindful of them,
mortals[a] that you care for them?

In christian belief, Jesus is God. So its essentially saying God wept but then you consider the story of the life of Jesus and why Jesus was put on earth and what may cause such a being to weep. Please take your stupidity/bait to

I know this is a joke, but why is "Jesus wept" supposed to be so profound? Its just a declarative statement.

Sex is like marijuana. If you're stupid before you start smoking pot, you'll probably become a pothead. If you're smart, you'll probably stay smart and the pot might even help you. Same with sex. If your goal in life is primarily sexual satisfaction, you probably weren't going to amount to much one way or another, whether the sexual revolution happened or didn't happen. The sexual revolution didn't cause problems - it revealed problems that had been there all along. Indeed, the totalitarian mass movements had already exposed the actual key problem. The Industrial revolution created giant urban concentrations of people whose families had been ignorant peasants only a couple of generations previously. The first world now is mostly made up of techno-peasants, people who are capable of using technology in a limited fashion but are barely developed above the peasant level when it comes to intelligence and culture.

>christian writers and readers who circlejerk around their self-identification with christ

>>9395914
I don't understand what would be objectionable about that from a Christian perspective.

We are meant to see something of ourselves in Christ, who is God who became man for our sake. We are therefore meant, through Christ, to aspire to be united to God, and to seek to perfect, as God is perfect. This is just what Christ says.

>>9395618
>The sexual revolution didn't cause problems - it revealed problems that had been there all along
I agree that peasants are a problem, but is it wrong to have norms in a culture?
With every other instinct, we use artificial barriers to keep us at bay. Duels are banned because the nobility almost killed the competent war machine around Europe, by killing each other over slander and jokes. Or women, which is even worse.

>>9395914
Christ self-identifies with Christians.

>>9395932

When it comes to victimless crimes, yes. Duels should be legal. They are, after all, consensual.
