This lie is typical of the garbage put forward by the likes of Frances Kissling and 'Catholics for Choice' crowd. The average Catholic in the pews reject these practices and take their Faith and the teaching of the Church seriously.

On the issue of contraception, even weekly communicants do not follow the Church's teaching. Just look at the size of the families.

You're right...I thought about that after I hit post. Married couples adhering to Church's teaching about birth control are definately in the minority...although there are probably more large new families today than there were 30 years ago.

There's no genie out of the bottle on birth control. The people who aren't following church teaching that is also a biblical commandment (be fruitful and multiply) are being SINFUL. If a RC doesn't like that, they can find another church Maybe they'll be more at home in those step and fetchit churches where they can name and claim their blessing without any babies to inconvenience them. This attitude is so norte-americano as one priest put it to me once and it's DISGUSTING.
