This should be obviuous to anyone who even reads the headlines. Look at the collapse of the faith in Ireland, with the intentional "popular" vote for the slaughter of Irish children before they see the light of day. What I would have you notice, is that one of the necessary (and apparently sufficient) causes for this was their acceptance of contraception: this paved the way for abortion.
In 1983, 66% of the Irish voters voted to put a highly protective pro-life provision, Amendment 8, into their Constitution. (Abortion was already illegal, but this mad it unconstituional as well>). Irish children were welcomed by love and protected by law.
In 1985, for the first time, condoms and spermicides were legally sold to people over 18 without a prescription.
In just one generation, the evil of this matured:
In 2018, the Irish mentality was exactly reversed against the children. As all aware FReepers know, the debauched Irish voted 66& to 34% TO REPEAL Amendment 8, and the floodgates have now been opened for the extermination of Irish children.
In every country in the world with the exception of Russia, it was contraception which so turned the minds of people against their own fertility --- and against natural female physiology, coming to see it as a national problem rather than as a loving treasure. Abortion became the "necessary backup" and inevitable outcome of the contraceptive mentality.
Textbook example of how contraceptive acceptance does not prevent abortion. It necessitates it.
Acceptance of birth control is not the CAUSE of moral breakdown and abortion.
The root cause of evil is the desire for sin in the heart.
If you want to consider contraception to be sin, then it too is the result of moral failure in the heart first.
ALL sin is conceived in the heart before it is borne in the flesh.
Contraception would then be just as much a symptom of moral breakdown as abortion is.
Y'all are blaming the wrong thing.
It's like blaming the existence of alcohol for alcoholism. Or guns for school shootings.
