No, but it’s not determined by the doctrines of the Catholic Church either.

I never said it was. The FACT is that ALL Protestant denominations condemned contraception prior to the mid-20th Century (Anglicans condemned it as late as 1930, but changed their mind at the 1958 Lambeth Conference). It is no coincidence that this is about the same time that Planned Parenthood was pushing contraception throughout America.

Protestants followed popular opinion while Catholicism did not.
