This shouldn’t surprise anyone.

Contraception is evil and a cornerstone of the culture of death.

Bit I’m sure a word would never be uttered about Muslims being against contraception.

That may be because many of the schools of Islam are not opposed to contraception, at least not all forms. The position of Islam, in general, with regard to contraception more closely resembles that of Judaism than Catholicism.
 
Is it true that contraception lowered the abortion rate?

All worth considering, but I still think you’re missing the point. It wouldn’t matter what Islam taught, it would still be pandered to and virtue-signaled upon.
 
when that doesn’t change their ratings, who will they swap out next? That group is pitiful.

Disagree. There has been plenty of criticism of certain wings of Islam, and not just the ones that like to blow up innocents. Just look at the Wahhabi school of Islam in Saudi Arabia for example. It is constantly being criticized for its views on women, family, etc… This idea that Islam is above criticism is overblown.

As I understand it, contraception rates and abortion rates rise and fall together, with contraception leading the way. I used to have a link to the data, and if I think of it later, I’ll try to find it for you.
 
I wasn’t aware the view was still on. I think the last time I watched is when Lisa Linga was still on and Jiy Beher would be mean to her.
 
I’ve never watched a full episode of the view and never plan to. The way that they treat conservative women is horrible. Let’s also remember that sex is a choice, and a privilege to be enjoyed by married folks for the purpose of building families and creating intimacy between husband & wife. Sex is not something you are obligated to partake in. Therefore, birth control should not be treated in the same category as food, water, and medication which are basic needs.

That being said, I do kind of see the point espoused by the opposing field and know that there are exceptions to every rule. Some women experience severe hormone related health problems that are alleviated by birth control drugs. I think that religious employers should ideally have provisions for cases like that in their healthcare plans but I can also foresee people taking advantage of that as a loophole.
 
One good way to torture me, is to strap me down and force me to binge watch The View.

As for bashing conservative Christians, what else is new?

🤷

Let’s see what the Taliban do:
  1. Silence, persecute & jail if not kill Christians
  2. Use the force of big government to get their way
  3. Think very highly of their version of Islam
  4. Do not tolerate dissent
**Let’s see what American liberals do:
**
  1. Silence, persecute & jail if not kill Christians
  2. Use the force of big government to get their way
  3. Think very highly oof Islam. In fact it’s numero uno on their ladder of perpetual victimhood…
  4. Do not tolerate dissent
:hmmm:…

Do you really mean to compare American liberals to the Taliban? Please rethink this.

The Catholic Church permits the use of hormonal birth control when the intention is to address a medical issue (such as you mentioned) and the infertility is an unintended side effect.

Could people find a loophole? They don’t need to - they can use birth control if they wanted, no one is stopping them. God knows what is in your heart; that is all that matters at the end of the day. Priests are not the people who decide what is sinful and what is not - God is.
