Of course, the Catholic church wants a lot more little Catholics out there, so their 'policies' are going to reflect that. Again, this is Catholic doctrine, not christian. So this is not an example of christian anti-sexuality as far as I am concerned. I attend service fairly regularly and I can honestly say that I've never heard any teachings having anything to do with sex one way or the other where I go, nor have I seen any policies either.
Are Catholics Christian or not? This is as clear an example of anti-sexuality (save perhaps the Taliban) that I've ever seen.
How many more examples of anti-sexuality do you need?
Okay, Sky, you win. We're all anti-sexual. Happy now?
This is ridiculous, believe whatever you want to believe, it matters not to me.
I'm not saying that all Christians are anti-sexual. I am saying that, like it or not, Catholics are Christians and that Catholic doctrine as I have shown is clearly anti-sexual. Catholics are the largest Christian denomination in the world. Here is another source:
Matthew chapter 5 (NLT)
27 "You have heard that the law of Moses says, 'Do not commit adultery.' 28 But I say, anyone who even looks at a woman with lust in his eye has already committed adultery with her in his heart. 29 So if your eye - even if it is your good eye - causes you to lust, gouge it out and throw it away. It is better for you to lose one part of your body than for your whole body to be thrown into hell. 30 And if your hand - even if it is your stronger hand - causes you to sin, cut it off and throw it away. It is better for you to lose one part of your body than for your whole body to be thrown into hell.
31 "You have heard that the law of Moses says, 'A man can divorce his wife by merely giving her a letter of divorce.' 32 But I say that a man who divorces his wife, unless she has been unfaithful, causes her to commit adultery. And anyone who marries a divorced woman commits adultery."
