I’m Protestant, so at least in a basic sense, I have no theological opposition to birth control pills — that’s a Catholic thing, right? Well, in fact, I think the Pope was completely correct. Birth control pills were very, very bad for society and for individuals. You are correct — many bad things have been made possible by the pill.
I’m protestant, too (with Catholic background and appreciation), but this isn’t really about being “against” it in a moral (preventing babies) sense. Just stating a fact.
I used BC, but only in marriage, because that is the only moral time for sex at all. That sex part is the morality issue to me. BCP and other “preventatives” lead to promiscuity. Rampant sex obsession leads to unwanted babies (abortion, but also neglected and abused and just plain immature people not ready to raise them, which means more dysfunctional ANTI-social people, despite the profligate promiscuity). Doesn’t matter if you have “safe sex” - it is going to happen. No great coincidence the skyrocketing illegitimacy rate follows the BC Pill (amongst other things, but BCP first).
