That said, I thought I heard Sean say that he found it perfectly acceptable for non catholic teens to use contraception because it's better than abortion.
When a caller stated that contraception is not guaranteed to be effective and then abortion would be the next step Sean seemed to suggest that the risk was acceptable to him.
He went on to say that he teaches his children differently. Sean's kids are five and eight if I'm not mistaken. I would hate to think he is giving them condom advice.
It would seem that Sean was suggesting that teaching about condoms is okay in the schools as long as it's not taught to catholic children.
I heard a good part of that program and was totally dismayed by the tone and the illogic of the arguments Sean was making.
Just heard about this actually. Did you notice how Sean started arguing like a liberal?
He was being accused on promoting contreception but he responded by throwing in the priest molestation scandal. He was essentially saying "you can't accuse of me of doing something wrong because some people in the same organization as you did something bad several years ago."
Talk about a classic red herring.
I love Sean Hannity. I am going to go out on a wild limb and say that probably he and his wife only wanted two children, which they have, and there has not been a conception since then. Many of my Catholic friends also felt “done” after two children and did something about it. Not everyone relies on natural family planning. They feel guilty but they still do it.
My friend who recently had a vasectomy went to confession about it, and was told to have it undone. He will not. Their family is complete, and one of their children has special needs.
I am not Catholic so I should not even be commenting but I am only standing up for Sean — he is probably deeply religious and faithful, like my friends, but simply feels he has had enough kids.
