I find it interesting that the same people who think we need to spread contraception around to stop over-population are the same ones who use the failure of contraception as an excuse for abortion.

Okay, that's probably not particularly relevant to this thread, but it popped into my head when I was reading this article.

Contraception and abortion are different sins; the latter is also a crime, since it is a sin against another. However, they mutually reinforce each other’s evil work: users of contraception come to regard abortion as backup contraception, and advocates of abortion “rights” consider contraception a benign alternative to abortion.

It is not unlike one sin begets another in general: thieves are also often murderers, drunkards are often gluttons, adulterers are also liars, etc.
