And therein lies the problem. Artificial contraception has a higher than advertised failure rate, and is accompanied by an anti-human attitude. Abortion is generally the backstop for failed artificial contraception.
Fertility is natural, a properly functioning reproductive system is not in need of "medicine" or "protection".
Male fertility is not a poison, but artificial contraception treats it as a poison.
Female fertility is not a disease, but artificial contraception treats it as a disease.
A couple monitoring the wife's fertility cycle is treating her fertility as a natural part of life, not as a disease to be treated.
But you already knew all that ...
It’s still birth control.
And as such should be condemned as other forms are.
If preventing the conception is the crime, is murder, then it matters little how it is done.
Catholicism condemns Onan for his actions in avoiding impregnating his sister-in-law to raised up children to carry on his brother’s name. NFP is no different.
The goal of NFP is to enjoy sex without the *risk* of pregnancy, something die hard Catholics condemn as immoral and the cause of the collapse of western civilization.
Clearly many Catholics think that enjoying sex for the sake of it is wrong.
Here’s a clue. GOD created it and made it pleasurable. Based on the result of the Fall, and Eve’s greatly increased conception, it’s no stretch to conclude that God intended married couples to enjoy that kind of intimacy just because.
