I disagree with the Orthodox on this because contraception is man's decision not to TRUST God through prayer alone.
In order for contraception to exist it must be offered to the secular world to allow mankind to promote promiscuous sex outside of marriage.
Where does this idea come from? Orthodox Christians are advised to pray and take counsel with their spiritual father. Is it the consultation with the sf that bothers you? I know that the Western Church's concept of God has, especially since the Reformation, diverged from that of the pre-Schism Church, but insisting that Ο ΩΝ wants to decide that Dick and Jane will make a baby on Tuesday night but not Thursday unless His ineffable purposes are frustrated by a condom seems just a bit over the top, sfa.
"In order for contraception to exist it must be offered to the secular world to allow mankind to promote promiscuous sex outside of marriage."
So? Don't Latin Church priests preach against promiscuity? Of course they do. Where they fall down is in giving communion to people who are publicly living in sin but breeding freely.
The Billions of Orthodox, Baptist and others who practice contraception but would never consider abortion or infidelty disprove your opinion.
Orthodoxy is arguably older and practicing closer to way of the early church.
