A real Catholic doesn’t support birth control. That makes sense as a rule that benefits society. Societies who don’t reproduce die out. When you have an enemy culture like the Muslims reproducing at a much more rapid rate, you hurt your society in the long run by being overrun by them. We can see how it’s happening in Europe with collapsing birthrates among whites and massive Muslim immigration and reproduction.

Low birthrates also hurt the economy as we’ve seen in Japan and Europe. They make a society weaker, less productive and gradually smaller.

God didn’t intend to make it easy for people not to have children. Sex was not created for human gratification, it was created to be a functioning process for reproduction. Birth control perverts the process in a completely unnatural and unintended way. The introduction of widespread birth control massively changed society and it’s difficult to see any of those changes as improvements.

“Sex was not created for human gratification, it was created to be a functioning process for reproduction.”

This, of course, is why Song of Solomon includes so much material on pregnancy and child-rearing.

You still have to be able to support and raise them. The large litters you speak of tend to be on govt support - something I won't do.

Nailed it!

And in society it has a disparate impact. Stupid women don't practice effective birth control but smart women do.

Just visit a high school or college to see the inevitable results.

IMHO the naturalistic argument doesn't hold sway anymore when it comes to childbirth. If nature had its course, women would have 10 children, out of which 7 or 8 would die.

The question shouldn't necessarily be what's natural, but what's ethical / moral.

And the process wouldn’t be “functioning” if it didn’t give “gratification.”
