Cardinal Burke noted that while previously the authority of the Church prohibited certain discussions, now Catholics feel free to dispute even settled Catholic teaching such as that forbidding contraception. Secularist society effect, ping!

The cardinal encouraged married couples to be generous in having children, dismissing false notions of the ecological need for population control. The truth is that if God has called a couple to marriage, then He is calling them also to be generous in receiving the gift of new human life, he said. And so we need many larger families today, and thanks be to God I see among some young couples today a remarkable generosity with regard to children.=============================================================
