ISTANBUL, Dec 22 (Reuters) - Turkish President Tayyip Erdogan has described birth control as a form of "treason," saying it threatened the country's bloodline.

Erdogan urged a newly married couple at their wedding late on Sunday to have at least three children to help boost Turkish population figures, a common refrain from the president, who worries a declining birth rate may undermine economic growth. [Fact:  More often than not, a declining birth rate mirrors a decline in economic growth and shrinking prosperity of the middle class, not the other way around.  Doh.]

"For years they committed a treason of birth control in this country, seeking to dry up our bloodline. Lineage is very important both economically and spiritually," he told the couple after serving as their witness at the wedding. A video of the speech was posted on the mainstream Radikal news website.

Last month, Erdogan, a devout Muslim, said it was unnatural to consider women and men equal and said feminists did not understand the importance of motherhood. In 2012, he sought to effectively outlaw abortion, but later dropped the plan amid a public outcry.

Erdogan regularly faces criticism for an authoritarian style of rule after 11 years in power. [This is something much deeper than that -- the man obviously has penis issues.  Probably has nightmares about Vagina Dentata...]

Turkey's population growth has been slowing in recent years and the live-birth rate hovered at 2.07 percent last year, according to official statistics. (Reporting by Ayla Jean Yackley; Editing by Dominic Evans)

Standing Man Defines Turkish Defiance...Where's the Woman???

Are the women sent home at dusk, fearing rape in this park-like area, similar to what Egyptian and foreign women were subjected to during the "revolution" in Egypt a few years ago, the same revolution that everyone cheered about?  Ha! Look who took over there, you fools!

Turkey, as is Egypt (and many others in the "Middle East") is a country out of balance.  A country out of balance cannot long prevail.  It may take some time, but eventually, this country --  it's system -- will fall.  A country that began in equality but has degenerated to inequality cannot prevail in the long run.  HIStory shows us that this is true (despite HIStory's best efforts to hide the truth from us).

So sad.  And yet, after more than six thousand years of recorded HIStory, we still haven't learned the most fundamental of lessons!  If the genders are not equal, there IS no equality.  Without equality, a system will fail.

It may take what seems like a long time in today's 24/7 world, but it WILL, ultimately, fail. 

Fundamentalists of all political and religious persuasions, your Days Are Numbered. Of that, I am one hundred percent certain.  I may not live to see it, but I think your end is closer than you think - if you're thinking with anything other than your penises.  Sadly, it appears that you do not understand the true meaning behind the tale of the "Handwriting On The Wall." Here is my paraphrase of the rendering into modern English:  YOU have been weighed in the scales (of Justice) and have been found wanting.  YOUR days are numbered.

This doesn't just apply to Turkey.  We've got the same kind of war going on right here in the United States.
