Yes, sadly our misogyny does go this far.  Jesus, never taught there was anything wrong with birth control and there were some types that existed in his time.   The more I look at our sexist rules about birth control, and even abortion, it becomes more and more clear, our leaders don't care what Jesus would do, they just want to control women thru their reproductive organs. 

It has been well proven now that most countries that restrict abortions greatly or illegalize the practice, have the highest abortion rates. This is especially true where birth control is also illegal or hard for women to gain access.  So where's the pro life in that global set of facts?  The church is well aware of these facts too. 

The old clerical adage:  Keep the laywomen barefoot and pregnant and they and their husbands will be too poor and exhausted to ever fight against the church leadership to seek change.  How right they were and for so long a time.  It is Time to say - No More!
