[Whats wrong with birth control?]
Contraception was the first step on the path that led to partial birth abortion and Terry Schiavo, just as its opponents said it would be a hundred years ago.
Not to mention the fact that the birthrates in countries where they're widely used are below replacement, opening the way for the metastasis of Islam.

Gee, we've been going down that hill a long time, contraceptive recipes predate Christianity in India and Rome. Last time I checked, a ROMAN CATHOLIC country named Mexico had the highest birth rate in the world! I'm sorry to let a little thing like facts get in the way of someone's mideval pope fantasy!
So, a woman falls into comma because somebody took the pill?, 1% of the women who abort this way did it because of a condom?, People hundred years ago knew what the feeding tubes were?. Besides, do you know that some islamic countries are bellow replacement for premature death, death during labour and wars?, and that they use birth control too?. I think I know what you mean, at least in the second paragraph, but you miss the detail that birthrates in the Muslim world have plummeted too(although maintain high birthrates nonetheless) and that you´re unable to use the sequitur logic AT ALL?
Bulimia brought about Terri Schiavo's case, not birth control. If you absolutely must take it back further than that, blame external pressures to be thin, or some sort of mental issue Terri (note the female spelling of Terri) had.
Second, I don't think birth control opponents in 1907 foresaw Terri Schiavo. I just can't imagine them being that claivoyent.
Third-- and here's the kicker-- there weren't a lot of birth control opponents in 1907. A hundred, two hundred, a thousand years ago, birth control was perfectly acceptable. Abortions using herbs were common during the first trimester, even among the Pilgrims. It wasn't until the 1920s that birth control became such a controversial issue.
But hey, nice try, dickhead.
The first recorded evidence of induced abortion is from a Chinese document which records abortions performed upon royal concubines in China between the years 500 and 515 BC. [2] According to Chinese folklore, the legendary Emperor Shennong prescribed the use of mercury to induce abortions nearly 5000 years ago.
And that was before christianity or islam existed. Try again.
Because taking a pill every day is the exact same thing as taking Sciavo's feeding tube out. (Which is totally the same thing as cold blooded murder, nay, the holocaust!)

Gee, I thought birth control was the first step to taking precautions to not have unwanted pregnancies....my eyes have been opened, I HAVE been enlightened. But what the hell does it remotely have to do with Islam?
Wow. This just screams logical fallacy. Oh it 'led' to Terry Schiavo did it?
Ok sure, maybe the car accident she was in was caused by a drunk driver who at some point in his live used a condom, and if he did not he would have gotten AIDS and died before he could hit Terry.
dsc was the result of a faulty contraceptive, methinks.
Yeah. I saw that fear-mongering video too. "Oh no, European people aren't fucking each other enough, and them Islams is coming in and are the majority and guess what, America's next! Dun dun duuuuuuuuunnnnnnn!"
Confused?
