An individuals judgment is formed by ones own opinion, therefore it is an opinion that contraception is amoral. Under specific religious structures those opinions are defined for you to guide your judgment. Mankind has many religious structures to pick from and the opinion of each varies.

Catholics are of the opinion all contraception is amoral, most of us are not Catholic.

No, that’s the different between “opinion” and “fact.” Moral questions are questions of fact, independent of individuals’ beliefs. Drunk driving, for example, is either morally wrong, or it’s morally acceptable. Whichever it is, is independent of whether you or I or 1,000 randomly selected likely voters think it’s right or wrong.

Liberal Catholics agree with most other sorts of Christians on birth control. Liberal Catholics and conservative Catholics disagree on this issue. I don’t think you could find a liberal Catholic who digs abortion, “gay marriage”, and homosexualist clergy in “relationships” who also doesn’t think the Church is wrong on birth control.
