No one can accuse the Torodes of failing to practice what they preach. Their son Gideon was born almost exactly nine months after their November 2000 wedding.

I think it is very hypocritical of those who use the NFP method to claim spiritual superiority since it involves controlling or avoiding pregnancy just as surely as the pill does.

Most pills are abortifacients, and cause an early abortion.

When practiced properly (and it's not any more complicated than remembering to take a pill at the same time every day), NFP is MORE EFFECTIVE than any other form of birth control WITHOUT the side effects.

Refraining from sex in a marriage in order to avoid pregnancy (for spacing or financial reasons, for example) brings the spouses closer together. Couples who practice NFP have a lower divorce rate than couples who use artificial birth control.

More to come later, my little monster :-) is wrecking havoc in the house!
