I wish the Protestants would see that birth control was an intrinsic evil the way they did before the Anglican Lambeth Conference in 1930; if families with more than two children once again became the norm, we would replace our own population without importing it and we would alleviate some of the financial pressure on those who hold to the teaching for millennia that artificial contraception is a moral wrong.

But once you can become your own pope, I don't think they have much of a reason to adhere to the teaching they once held.

I wish the Roman Catholic would understand they practice birth control via NFP.

I’m Protestant ....southern baptists ....five kids

When I was young white non Hispanic Catholics had large broods

That ship sailed

Don’t blame us

Your birth rate and your Pope is on you guys

Trust me I’d live to see white catholic families with eight kids like it used to be

And a stalwart Pope

But alas

Your cardinals deposed Benedict is how it looks form here

To install a leftist fag Pope

Popes matter....even to non Catholics given how many of y’all there are

I wish they saw it was wrong, including NFP, but you must include Catholics as well, since those Rome manifestly considers to be members use contraception about as much as Protestants, and evangelicals have about as many kids as Caths.

And consider Italy:

n the spring of 2016 the Pew Research Center found that 81.7% of the population of Italy was affiliated with the Catholic Church, out of a Christian population of 85.1% https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Religion_in_Italy#cite_ref-Survey_1-2

But once you can become your own pope

And just how does a Bible Christian presume personal infallibility in teaching, versus veracity resting upon Scriptural substantiation? Is it wrong to test what is taught by Scripture?

But if making the veracity of RC teaching subject to examination, based upon how one understand ancient church teaching, means that such is presuming to be pope rather than just submitting to what your current church teaches, then once again you must deal with your own./
