I used this loosely paraphrased quote of JPII in another post and had a few of me ask for the source and I couldn’t find it at that time.

Well, rereading a lot about the Church teachings on NFP I came across many gems, and of course this wonderful JPII quote -

"Contraception is to be judged so profoundly unlawful as never to be, for any reason, justified. To think or to say the contrary is equal to maintaining that in human life, situations may arise in which it is lawful not to recognize God as God"
Taken from L’Oservatore Romano, p.7 October 10, 1983-

in Jason Evert’s book: Pure Intimacy he quotes JPII, in a US address saying that “Contracpetion is not a subject of debate for theologians”

Jason Evert also makes a good case for why this teaching is a Magesterial, therefore infallibale, teaching even if not pronounce ex-cathedra.

Here is one great article by fr. frank Pavone that incorporates the Oct. 10th quote: priestsforlife.org/articles/famplandil.html

So…perhaps, one day, we can dream, that ALL Catholics will be of one mind, on this one HUGE topic, regarding sexuality and marriage.

And please, note the second quote, no debate please 🙂
 
Not dream…PRAY:)
Exactly. Ours is a church which is a hospital for sinners and the spiritually sick, we must turn to Christ the Doctor and ask Him to help us be healed, to heal us of our afflictions.
 
This is a good observation by you and John Paul II. Basically, when we wander beyond the teachings of the church, we are making a choice. We are deciding that God’s laws and His protection for us is just not wanted. We choose to disobey.

Contraception by the way is one of the biggest subjects of our day, in my opinion.

It is THE biggest subject of the day…We are so far out of God’s will including killing 3600 of his precious creations EVERY SINGLE DAY, and all of this has come about since The Pill was invented. Of course there’s been contraception for eons but not that effective.

God help us. God have mercy on us.
