Dear Kerretarded,

"But it is. Who determined that we should regulate how many children God may bless us with?"

Sorry, but if you believe that "regulation of birth" as defined by the Catholic Church is immoral, then you're disagreeing with what the Catholic Church teaches. The phrase is used in Salvation's quote from the Catholic Catechism. Pope Paul VI addresses the appropriate regulation of birth in Humanae Vitae.

"If you are to condemn one form of regulation, all must be condemned if you are knowingly trying NOT to conceive."

Only if one says that regulation of birth is intrinsically evil. In that the Catholic Church doesn't teach that regulation of birth is intrinsically evil, your proposition fails, at least as it regards Catholic teaching.

The Catholic Church isn't teaching that regulation of birth is intrinsically evil, only that certain METHODS are intrinsically evil.

Thus, it's good to make sure that one eats in moderation so that one may both enjoy good health and nutrition and the pleasure of one's food. It isn't good to make sure that one doesn't over-absorb calories by vomiting excess consumed food. The fact that bulimia is an intrinsically evil method of moderating absorption of calories doesn't mean that all methods of moderating absorption of calories are intrinsically evil.

It's good to earn a salary and use one's income to support one's family. Even though supporting one's family is intrinsically worthy, it isn't morally acceptable to provide that support by robbing banks.

I do not view it as immoral. Just finding my way. Asking questions. Provoking debate. Your analogy did help. Thanks.
