    Here we Go Again: The Celibate Nazi Pope in Prada Loafers Running His Mouth about Marriage


    VATICAN CITY -- Pope Benedict XVI said Friday that a lack of true love was behind an increase in failed marriages and a decrease in birth rates in much of the developed world.

    Benedict told members of the Pontifical Academy of Social Sciences that children nowadays also aren't as valued as they once were, in part because of the economic, social and cultural changes in the globalized world.

    "Often, instead of feeling loved and cherished (children) appear to be merely tolerated," he said.

    The pontiff said the increase in life expectancy and decline in birth rates were "linked to a disturbing deficit of faith, hope and indeed love."

    Access to education, birth control and better lives are behind the decline in birth rate, you misogynist, hate-filled, vicious, medieval creep.
