If you would like to understand the rational for why the Catholic Church rejects artificial birth control read Pope Paul VI’s 1968 encyclical HUMANAE VITAE: http://www.vatican.va/holy_father/paul_vi/encyclicals/documents/hf_p-vi_enc_25071968_humanae-vitae_en.html
For insights on living life in harmony with the mystery of God, and others, check out Pope John Paul II’s LOVE & RESPONSIBILITY and THEOLOGY OF THE BODY.
A criticism however needs to be brought to these two aforementioned books. They’re built on the premise that humanity is “fallen” and that the trajectory of mankind is to be redeemed back into its “original innocence.” Once having entered this mindset of original innocence harmonious relationships follow. And I agree… it’s definitely a good mindset to have, but it’s not an innocence we lost from the “Fall” of Adam and Eve. I believe there was no “Fall”, and the only innocence we’re returning to is the innocence we felt as children.
Evolutionary biology is showing us that we are born from something more complex than the snap of God’s fingers, and whatever our genesis, it includes severe conflict and competition. And this competition goes deep into our beings. For example, the book Sperm Wars by Robin Baker shows that a good portion of the sperm in a man’s is designed to fight and kill-off sperm from another male in the woman’s cervix.
Reflection on this biological fact unwinds for me so much Christian theology, especially the premise referenced above in JP2’s two books. They’re built on Jesus words in Mathew 19:8… that before “the fall” man and woman (Adam and Eve) were one in marriage, and that it was a result of the fall we need to return to how it was “in the beginning.”
Jesus is the supposed Redeemer who will deliver us to the harmony of how it was “in the beginning,” but we know that the beginning was an awful place. Our physical bodies tell us that millions of years ago reproduction was a gang bang nightmare where after the men nearly fought to the death over who’d have the woman first, even then their sperm had to fight like gladiators. Is this God’s design from 6000 years ago? I don’t think so.
And it is because I can’t reconcile traditional Catholic theology with science and its reasonable methods my conscience and prayer-life are being pushed to find a new understanding.
Today I argue that the Christian mission is not to have us return to some mythical Eden, but to have us evolve into our potential… to go where we have never been before. It’s no longer Jesus as savior delivering us back to Eden’s innocence, but Jesus as older, wiser friend inviting us over for dinner, and in that conversation, we discover for ourselves those areas that need maturity and purity.
It’s a new Christology, and maybe it converts much of Jesus into allegory, but it connects the reality of evolutionary science with our human experience… and by that, I mean that deep quiet desire we all have to want to be more than we are and to live up to our potential. Jesus lived up to his potential, and modeling our lives after his brings out the virtues, which are universal and are not exclusive to any religion. [Side note: it just occurred to me that the virtues are nothing more than God's personality traits. This might be worthy of meditation.]
As a complement to this way of looking at life, I believe one’s own personal physical nature is to be in harmony with the mind and spirit. Medicines are important in this as they help heal us when we’re sick, but the contraceptive pill is not a medicine. It is not fixing something that is broken, it is breaking something that is working just fine (i.e., female fertility).
This is why I’m opposed to it, and I think there’s a better way for couples to manage their reproduction. And, I think people should know the facts and risks regarding how “The Pill” may cause embryonic abortions. This alone should bother a lot of Christians, especially those precious few who still believe that although we are “fallen,” that’s not an excuse to be passive, but that we still have an obligation to try to live up to our potential.

What Are Birth Control Pills?
Posted on March 10th, 2010 by admin
Birth control pills are a kind of medication that women can take daily to prevent pregnancy. They are also sometimes called the pill or oral contraception. Birth control pills are made of hormones. Hormones are chemicals made in our bodies. They control how different parts of our bodies work. The hormones in the pill work by keeping a womans ovaries from releasing eggs — ovulation. Pregnancy cannot happen if there is no egg to join with sperm. The hormones in the pill also prevent pregnancy by thickening a womans cervical mucus. The mucus blocks sperm and keeps it from joining with an egg.

Abortifacient Effects of Birth Control Pills Pro-Life Video
Posted on January 18th, 2010 by admin
Abortifacient Effects of Birth Control Pills Pro-Life Video. Special thanks to and posted with permission from Michael Hitchborn of the American Life League (ALL). American Life League calls all pro-lifers across the country to speak out on Protest the Pill Day ‘08: The Pill Kills Babies, scheduled for the Griswold anniversary of Saturday, June 7. We encourage you to gather with your friends for peaceful protests in front of facilities that distribute birth control products. For insights on God’s plan for sex and human dignity, read Pope John Paul II’s LOVE & RESPONSIBILITY and THEOLOGY OF THE BODY. Artificial hormonal birth control works by introducing artificial estrogen and artificial progesterone (progestins), at 4 to 10 times the dosage naturally produced by the body. These dangerously high levels trick the brain into thinking that the person may be pregnant and cause ovulation to stop. The pill also prevents conception by thickening the cervical mucous so that the sperm can’t reach the egg. If this doesn’t work, the pill prevents the implantation of an already fertilized egg. This occurs when a new human person has already been conceived, but after the artificial hormones have thinned the uterus lining. So rather than sort of snuggling into a nice nourishing uterus to continue development, the uterus is hostile and the embryo is discarded. Most pills are combined hormonal pills with both artificial estrogen and artificial progesterone. The progesterone-only pills, however, don’t prevent fertilization, but work primarily by thinning the uterus lining. Depo-provera, for example, is a progestin that is injected every three months and strips down the lining of the uterus. Similarly, the intra-uterine device (IUD) causes “inflammation and scarring of uterine lining,” thereby preventing implantation. Barrier methods such as condoms, sterilization, diaphragm and spermicides work by aiming “to prevent a meeting of the sperm and the egg.” Nevertheless, statistics published by Family Planning Perspectives note an extremely high percentage of “reproductive failures”, i.e. pregnancy. The birth control pill has a 12.9% pregnancy rate; condoms have an incredibly high 23.1% pregnancy rate, diaphragm 20%, depo-provera 4.2% and spermicide 25%. Given on average the amount of months that a woman uses artificial birth control during her reproductive years, which is a majority in the reality of North America, there will be 1.8 ‘reproductive failures’ per woman’s reproductive life. According to previous studies, only about 50% of pregnancies in the US are intended. Among those that reported unintended pregnancies, 50% said they were using a form of artificial birth control properly at the time of the conception. So it’s not like, ‘Oh I was on the pill, but I missed it for a week’ because that wouldn’t be considered being on the pill. Finally, 50% of those “reproductive failures” end in abortion. If abortion is defined as “any interruption in the normal development of the embryo,” methods that “prevent implantation” are abortive. Breakthrough ovulation rates (fertilization occurs, but implantation fails), for example, can happen in up to one third of cycles on the pill. In combined hormonal birth control pills, this occurs from 1.7% to 28.6% per cycle, whereas with progestin-only pills, fertilization rates are from 33% to 65% per cycle. These are relatively high rates, Kraw noted, considering that 80% of North American women have used a hormonal method for birth control by the time they finish their reproductive years. Tragically, after discontinuing birth control, women also experience high infertility rates. Fertility rates are 26% lower after using birth control, and 29% lower after using the IUD. In addition, even the so-called “low-dose” pills cause a 2 to 6 times increased risk of blood clots throughout the body. They started off using ten times the amount of estrogen, well, what happened? Women died in the first phase trial of these medications. The problem is that this is still occurring even as the dose of estrogen has lowered itself to only about 4 times with the low-dose pills.

Birth Control Pills Significantly Increase Breast Cancer Risk / Video
Posted on January 13th, 2010 by admin
Best Preventative Action Against Breast Cancer / Video. Published by Secret of the Rosary Films. Image from Fair Use.
CHICAGO, March 7, 2006 (LifeSiteNews.com) A world leader in cancer causes and prevention has warned that the so-called birth control pill is the largest unregulated human trial thats ever been conducted.
Dr. Sam Epstein, author of Cancer-Gate: How to Win the Losing Cancer War and Professor of Environmental and Occupational Medicine at the School of Public Health, University of Illinois at Chicago, told the CBCs Marketplace that exposure to the hormones estrogen and progestin, as found in the pill, increase breast cancer risk.
Marketplace author Wendy Mesley, herself a breast cancer survivor, explained that the World Health Organizations International Agency for Research on Cancer last year re-classified hormonal contraceptives as carcinogenic to humans.
Dr. Chris Kahlenborn, M.D. demonstrated that a woman who takes birth control pills before her first child is born has at least a 40 percent increased risk of developing breast cancer and a woman who has taken the pill for four or more years prior to the birth of her first child has a 72 percent risk factor in developing breast cancer. Dr. Kahlenborns book, Breast cancer: Its link to abortion and the birth control pill, published by One More Soul, is based on six years of study and a meticulous analysis of hundreds of scientific papers and other sources.
A European study, which looked at 103,000 women aged between 30 and 49 in Norway and Sweden found the risk of developing breast cancer rose by 26% for women who had taken the pill over those who had never used it. Moreover, women who had used the pill for long periods of time increased their risk of breast cancer by 58%. The study also found that women over 45 still using the pill had an increased risk of 144%.
The British Medical Journal revealed that the pill increases a womans risk of developing cerebrovascular disease by 1.9 times while increasing the tendency to cervical cancer by 2.5 times. The 25 year follow-up study with 46,000 British women also noted that the enhanced risk of death lasts for 10 years after women have stopped taking the pill.
