Responsible fatherhood and motherhood in part, means exercising self control when the family doesn’t have the ability to reasonably care for the child (think very poor families, like many in the Philippines).

I'd rather have a destitute, beggar child go to Heaven, than him never being conceived. I don't know about you, though.

Your argument above is the same one Planned Parenthood preaches to poor blacks and whites to encourage abortions.

You are off the mark. I wish to have life brought into this world.

The teaching of the Church is based on a simple principal. One is not required to sex. If one chooses to abstain from sex in total, as in priests and the unmarried, it is admirable. If a husband and wife, having truly examined their desire to not have a child at a certain time, for good reason, they are not required to have sex during her fertile time.

What this DOES NOT teach, however, is something along the lines of not wanting a child out of convenience, or sacrifice. Those reasons would be selfish, and neither open to love nor to life.

Please do not insult me with even the remotest comparison to Planned Parenthood. They are pure evil.
