text: Contraception restrictions, exactly where is this in the Bible?  Is is better a child be born to a family who can not support it or a child born to a family who had prepared for it.  The second child will be loved and have the benefits of a good life.  An unwanted child will not.  
  
  Once a child is born to a family who can not afford it there is no recourse for the parents especially now that donnie and the boys are rolling back all the programs aimed at helping them.  Christians can not have it both ways, either we prevent the pregnancy or assist the children.  
  
  The idea, every couple must have as many children as possible hearkens back to a time when so few children survived. and the Church needed bodies in the seats.  Times change the Church must change with it if it wishes to stay relevant. 
  
   I was married Over 45 years ago,the priest at Pre-Cana said  contraceptives were a personal thing...of course this was after Vatican II and before the conservative bishops rewrote the rules.
