  I wonder if MSW ever has opined on the pragmatic political effectiveness (or ineffectiveness)  of Catholic leaders  making being anti-contraception such a requirement of being pro-life. I would love to hear his insight on this. Does anyone know how he feels on this issue? 
  
  Does MSW think either/both anti-abortion a) support and b) credibility are unnecessarily lost with this pairing? 
  
  And I wonder if fellow pro-life Christians wish Catholic clergy would stop pairing abortion and contraception in their messaging, since many (most?) of the most ardent pro-life evangelical leaders see contraception as a loving,  responsible component of family planning and successful marital relations--and not an effective or necessary part of the anti-abortion message at all.
