You: “In my opinion it’s at least as bad to discourage birth control when the result is an ever-increasing poor population...”

Me: Ay - there’s the rub! This is why you are one of the moral relativists the pope has warned us about. You can justify anything — even shutting God out of the procreative acts He designed and wills to participate in — based on your relativisitic machiniations (aka rationalization).

Your blindness to this reality is a tragedy. You view sexual desire to be so strong that not even love of God could cause one to curb it or else welcome the pro-creative possibiliities it entails.

Why do people not understand 1) being able to count to 14 or 2) self-restraint?

It's not moral relativism on my part because I don't think birth control is a sin at all. Moral relativism would be if I tried to justify a small sin for some reason.

I'm just saying that I think your position is at least as wrong as you think my position is.
