The Catholic Church is growing in this country
The Roman Catholic church is declining in this country. If it weren't for Latin America, it would be on its way to history.
Evangelical Christianity has become the largest religious tradition in this country, supplanting Roman Catholicism, which is slowly bleeding members, according to a survey released yesterday by the Pew Forum on Religion and Public Life...
And here...
While the ranks of the unaffiliated have grown the most due to changes in religious affiliation, the Catholic Church has lost the most members in the same process...Those who have left Catholicism outnumber those who have joined the Catholic Church by nearly a four-to-one margin. Overall, one-in-ten American adults (10.1%) have left the Catholic Church after having been raised Catholic, while only 2.6% of adults have become Catholic after having been raised something other than Catholic...
Ha! This is just another cowardly attempt at refusing to defend your false and lonely position. Again, every major protestant denomination was either wrong eighty years ago or is wrong now, but none of them takes your indefensible view. It's a shame that you won't even try to stand up for your own position and instead try to change the subject solely to religious populations. You have now effectively ceded the scriptural debate on this thread.

Now you are just being silly. A few Catholics may get stolen away, but overall the Catholic Church in the U.S. just passed 68 million and the total world population of Catholics just passed a billion while the total number of protestants in the U.S. is declining. You probably know this, though, or you wouldn't have cleverly substituted the nebulously defined protestant subset of "evangelical" for the more objective "protestant" delineation. That's a pretty desperate trick in a religious discussion like this one. Either way it's just reorganizing the deck chairs on the Titanic. Particular denominations may grow or fall while the overall number of artificial contraception-lovin' protestants unceasingly shrinks.
You never answered the question, though. What religion are you and does that religion hold your wacky support of only certain kinds of artificial contraception? You seem to like throwing stones at other people's religions while hiding your own religious identity. That looks pretty cowardly.
