And what led to the acceptance of contraception?
The moral decay that people seem to think followed.
It’s backwards. The moral decay was there first.
Acceptance of contraception is a symptom. One of the earliest, no doubt, but not the cause of moral decay.
I agree somewhat; I would say that there was definitely moral rot, but the acceptance of contraceptive as normal and even healthy sped up the process.
Sort of like modern art - it is a symptom of cultural depravity, but it also increases the depravity.
Probably poor analogy, I’m tired and off to bed!
(Hope you’re feeling somewhat better, mm!)
