About those rabbits

Two weeks ago, if I had posted in any group or forum the comment that, "Catholics shouldn't breed like rabbits", I would have been alerted on, and based on my experience, my post would have been hidden. In some groups, I would have then been blocked. Does anyone doubt that that would have been the response? So what does that make Pope Frank? Is he now blocked from certain groups here?

"Some think that - excuse me if I use this word - that in order to be good Catholics we have to be like rabbits. No. Responsible paternity, that is clear." Pope Francis says.

Why does the headline and article use "breed" when the actual quote from Francis they posted in the same title does not?

The unfiltered, unedited, uncommented and interpreted full video, half way down the page:

Wish I had a better link, but the video is remarkably hard to find posted.
