How so?

Zika actually has nothing to do with the supposed outbreak of microcephaly. Health authorities hemisphere-wide did a massive end run around the scientific method in a mad rush to assert a cause-effect relationship. The crown jewel of the effort was when Fauxp Francis (Jorge Bergoglio) jumped on the secular population control bandwagon and announced an indefinite duration hall pass for sexuallt active members of the faithful within a thousand mile radius of a photograph of a newborn with microcephaly permitting them to contracept rather than run the (fake news, phony,invented-out-of-whole-cloth) risk of giving birth to a microcephalic baby.

Is Pope Francis’ Contraception Allowance During Zika Threat a Major Shift for Church?

Pope Francis: Contraception could be OK to slow Zika Virus

Pope Francis on Thursday suggested that using artificial contraception in countries afflicted with the Zika virus would be OK for women worried with how the disease is linked to rare birth defects.

Calling it a “lesser of two evils,” Francis indicated that choosing to avoid pregnancy altogether would be the better alternative to abortion.

Abortion “is an evil in and of itself, but it is not a religious evil at its root, no? It’s a human evil,” he told reporters en route to Rome following his six-day visit to Catholic-heavy Latin America, which is grappling with a Zika outbreak.

“On the other hand, avoiding pregnancy is not an absolute evil,” he continued. “In certain cases, as in this one (Zika), such as the one I mentioned of Blessed Paul VI, it was clear.”

Francis held up Pope Paul VI as an example of a sort of precedence on the issue: In the 1960s, Paul VI approved nuns in the Belgian Congo to use artificial contraception to prevent pregnancies amid the threat of rape.
