Pope Paul VI prayed long and hard over this. What stopped him was the question of, "What happens when artificial means fail? What would be the next step? And he saw abortion--the ending of life. He also saw sex as a great gift between couples. Artificial means of birth control reduces this gift to a recreational activity between non-married couples.Also, I wonder why birth control must be "natural." Humans are tool users, and every advancement in technology helps us to solve problems. Whether "natural" birth control or birth-control technology is being used, the couple's intent not to conceive is still the same.
