The humanist agenda continues:
United Nations Declares Access To Contraception A ‘Universal Human Right’
For the first time, the U.N. Population Fund (UNFPA) explicitly described family planning as a ‘universal human right.’ In its annual report, the organization said that improved access to contraception and other methods of family planning could greatly improve the lives of women around the world: ‘Family planning has a positive multiplier effect on development,’ Dr. Babatunde Osotimehin, executive director of the fund, said in a written statement. ‘Not only does the ability for a couple to choose when and how many children to have help lift nations out of poverty, but it is also one of the most effective means of empowering women. Women who use contraception are generally healthier, better educated, more empowered in their households and communities and more economically productive. Women’s increased labor-force participation boosts nations’ economies.’
"Progress continues." Being able to control whether you get pregnant or not is now considered to be on the same level of importance as food, water and shelter.
Natural law teaches that contraception is morally illicit because it interferes with the very purpose of sex to begin with--its fruition in human life. Another way to look at it is...the purpose of your stomach is to digest food and you desire food because your body seeks health, just by its very nature. Who seeks death? The type of bulimic who on the other hand desires food and consumes food because it is pleasurable and then throws it up (even if it is on a schedule to ensure not taking in too many calories)...nearly everyone recognizes that there is a problem with this. Why? You are starting a process with the intention of not finishing it. You are rolling the bowling ball down the lane with the intention and hope that you don't get a strike, batting with the intention of hitting a home run but not winning the game or....starting a war for the fun of getting in battles, but intending or, at least being open to, finishing it.
