And btw I think the WH is wrong to work on a compromise. They should not.

This said, there seems to be a total disconnect between men and women catholics. It seems only men are calling for this compromise. Could it be that women already knows the Catholic Church as no respect for them?

On a different note, this ridiculous position concerning contraception and sexual relations is pretty much what made the Catholic Church irrelevant in France in the 1970s-1980s, when they were insisting that you should only have sexual relations after being married and that no birth control/STD prevention was acceptable right in the middle of the AIDS crisis. It is interesting that this question is still existing in this country and that pols still pander to them.

The other point is that this pseudo crisis should be a sign that single payer is the way to go.
