At least I use my reason and not blindly follow the teachings of anyone (or group). Isaiah 1:18 Says the Lord "Come let us reason together". As least God says I should use my mental faculties. Did Jesus or the Apostles subject themselves to the Churchs authority? No they did not. I hope you don't think they fell into the secular pit by not doing so. Why continue this? The Holy Spirit has blessed me, thank you for your thoughts.

So this is where you want to take the discussion, eh?

So let me understand this: as long as a Catholic shares your position on abortion, they're being logical and free-thinking. Yet the Church also mandates that we be against abortion. So aren't we really just blindly following the Church here? Because that's what you're saying about Catholics who are against contraception.

You're also ignoring the possibility that maybe the Church has also used their reasoning abilities to be against both contraception and abortion.

You're setting yourself up as the arbiter of what is and isn't a reasonable position and being condescending to boot.
