Moral female Christians use birth control. It is a Practical choice that doean’t weigh heavily on the conscience, if at all. Regardless of philosophical reasonings of all the heavy weight thinkers, birth control is the choice over married abstinence, multiple pregnancies or children. These individuals call themselves moral Christian women. Perhaps many of you will have to rethink your classification.

They may call themselves moral. If their consciences are malformed or depraved, they might not be culpable for such acts. Nothing can make an intrinsically immoral act moral.
The marital act, when actively and artificially cut-off from its purpose, the begetting of children, is a misuse of the act. Nothing anybody has stated in this whole thread has provided any reason to hold otherwise.
You simply state that those of us who study and understand Natural Law will have to change our minds to agree with you and the majority. This is why earlier in this thread I referred to this as a wedge issue to be used against those ally themselves around. The response demonstrates it. Arguments about Natural Law, protecting minor children from easy access, and the historical holdings of all Christians and other non-Gnostic major religions is met with either a non-response, or a "so many are doing it" answer (usually the province of liberals). Before Jindal introduced this damnable suggestion, the fissures were not exposed.
