Would you not agree that identifying the root cause of a problem is the most effective way of eradicating the problem? I posit that birth control is not the root cause of the division of the family. Neither is Marxism. Much like guns are not the root cause of violent crimes. Destruction of the family to conquer a society predates 20th century thought. By a large margin.
Indulge me for a brief moment. I suggest the lack of self-control on the individual level, and subsequently on the corporate level, is either the root cause, or very close to it, of our current downward spiral as a nation.
Take your man and wife example. If one or the other lacks self-control, will they not begin to experience dissatisfaction in their marriage? Indulging the self becomes a primary focus rather than contributing to the marriage. Much like the gun in the hands of a self-indulgent person becomes a tool to satisfy a selfish and criminal urge, so too the pill becomes not just useful for regulation but for self-indulgence. And the condom becomes more than useful for effective family planning and enters the realm of satisfying self-indulgent self-gratifying urges in destructive extra-marital relationships.
Marxism takes advantage of this fact of human condition. If we, as Americans, would not succumb to self-indulgence, be it sexually, materially, gluttonously(?), financially, emotionally etc, Marxism would never survive, regardless of how many twinkies, condoms, pills, bottles of whiskey, fast cars or loose women were brought to bear.
Moral decay is a tool used by the left.
America is like a healthy body and its resistance is threefold: its patriotism, its morality, and its spiritual life. If we can undermine these three areas, America will collapse from within. - Joseph Stalin
"Socialism is precisely the religion that must overwhelm Christianity. … In the new order, Socialism will triumph by first capturing the culture via infiltration of schools, universities, churches and the media by transforming the consciousness of society." Antonio Gramsci - Marxist - teacher of Saul Alinsky
