Comment: Have seen estimates that as much as 80% of practicing Catholic women use contraception. Sex is inevitable because as Elise points out it is one of the primary driving forces of life, it is fun and for most people it feels good. Education is a wonderful thing but only if those who need it most have access to it and are open to it. Prevent unwanted pregnancies and the entire abortion as political diver would become much less of a cudgel. I suppose that for a lot of evangelical "christians" the idea of contraception itself is a non-starter because pregnant women are easier to control and less threatening to the traditional white male dominance of the work world.
