This is a musical number from the second act of Monty Python's "The Meaning of Life". Please keep in mind the Catholic who is singing the lead does not believe in contraception... and neither do his many, many children, who are singing the backup. And yes, that IS a Chinese dragon in the background of the finale. How it got there... don't ask, don't tell.

  1. Yes, Sperm and Eggs are people too...they need to be protected!!!!!
  2. Nobody commented that half the singing was done by small children.
  3. I wish more women were Catholic. I'll tell them I'll masturbate if they don't have sex with me :P
  4. But if a one cell zygote is a person than the two parts that made it seconds before were 1/2 persons............but you are right....
  5. HAHAHA! that's so funny! too bad nobody is laughing, dumbass!
  6. A fertilized egg is as close to a human being as a skin cell on my arse.
  7. That is why a woman's body voluntarily rejects a sperm if it is a "legitimate" rape. Don't believe me?  Just ask Todd Akin! :)
  8. Love the choreography. Just..love it.
  9. 203's sperm was wasted
  10. saw this last night, the opening scene with insurance pirates was FUCKING HILARIOUS
  11. Papist Claptap 
  12. Only Monty Python could use a musical number to puncture the pompous edicts of an old man who claims to know the will of God and claims that masturbation is a sin, sperm is sacred and that therefore condoms cannot be used.(When I was a child, I was told by priests I would go to hell if I masturbated) Also I suspect this was a bit of payback for the vitriolic criticisms of various Bishops regarding The Life of Brian.
  13. No. You are comparing a sperm-cell is to a fetus. (I'm not against abortion by the way, but your statement is false)
  14. My guess is they have tried neither.
  15. XD
  16. Who are you to say what is right?
  17. and masturbation is genocide
  18. Oh man, thank you for this, I couldn't help but look for this clip to post to FB as a bit of irony when I noticed this was airing on Showtime right after Paul Ryan was announced as Romney's running mate today. This should be their new campaign tune LOL
  19. You're missing the point. I was just trying to refute what OTEPmusic said. About 1% of abortions are done during the third trimester, and in most countries it's not considered "murder", i'm not sure about 3 seconds, that was just a hyperbole. but a baby doesn't look much different 1 week before birth than it does when it's born. And it does look much more like a human than sperm even after 12 weeks. Made it kinda short, but if you would like to add something, please message me, these limits suk
  20. Abortions are commonly done before the 12th week of pregnancy. Its not considered an abortion to kill a baby 3 seconds before birth or its murder. Very rarely has a full term baby been removed just before birth, because both the mother and child would die and therefore, they chose to save the mother, instead.
  21. Do vegans spit or swallow?
  22. if a sperm wasnt wasted wouldnt ladies give birth to litters in the thousands it would be like a queen ant but half the population is a queen ant
  23. How do you figure? blowjob is just "killing" sperm, while abortion is killing a developed sperm inside an egg (much closer to a human being). If you kill a baby 3 sec before birth, it's abortion and perfectly OK but if it's 3 sec after birth, everybody says it's murder. Now, don't get me wrong, I think life begins at birth and abortion is not murder. I wouldn't purposefully do it, but people should be able to do w/e they want with their fetus b4 it's born. However, what you said is not right.
  24. Blasphemy! It is delicious, it is rosy, it is sexy! Eat your words you cretinous heathen!
