From Wikipedia on Scott Hahn: As a young theologian, Scott Hahn was convinced that the Catholic Church was in error, and boasted of having converted some Catholics into embracing a purer Christianity. His conversion began when he and his wife became convinced that contraception was contrary to God's law. He was also bothered that the Catholic Church was the only Christian church tradition that upheld the ancient teaching of prohibiting contraception that Protestants abandoned in the 1930s.

I am not Roman Catholic, and I agree that deliberately avoiding children is sin. I have been very guilty of this sin in the past, and asked the Lord forgiveness. He has blessed my wife and I with 11 children.

Yes, there are challenges, to be sure. There are heartbreaks, there are disappointments. But there are also victories and triumphs and many joys. We wouldn’t change anything.

Very interesting article. Wonder why Scott Hahn knows that the plural of Christian is Christians, but doesn’t know that he and Kimberly are the Hahns, not the Hahn’s.

I spent 10 years in Catholic parochial schools...and although abortion was the prime target to hate and revile and rightly so...we heard about not using contraception but it was never the pinnacle of our training...

Sorry...I'll stick to hating the killing of innocents lives, not the prevention.

as a pragmatist (and a confessed, lapsed Catholic), not being able to afford raising a child(another child? a 10th or 11th child?), then getting pregnant is a sure way to force early abortions...better to not get pregnant in the first place.

His tapes on the Book of Revelations are fabulous.

Kimberly Hahn is Kimberly Kirk, her dad being Jerry Kirk. I sat under Jerry's preaching for nearly a year at College Hill Presbyterian in 1974-5. He was an absolutely wonderful preacher whose ministry grew into the thousands in northern Cincinnati along Hamilton Avenue.

I was really surprised when I read that his daughter, Kimberly Hahn had converted to Catholicism along with her husband. I read Scott's book defending Catholicism as being scriptural, and acknowledged his points in all but a very few important areas.

Nonetheless, I do believe the Roman Catholics are absolutely correct about contraception, and I see the basic problem being the arrogance of anointing oneself the determiner of the beginning of life. If is a slippery, easy slope from there to deciding one is also the determiner of the end of life....abortion on demand and all forms of euthanasia. And that easily falls prey to believing in a government's authority to determine not just the beginning and ending of life but also how life in between those end points should be lived.

Contraception, in my mind, leads to believing in Godless, all-controlling government. It leads to, in other words, slavery.

I'm sorry if I've interjected my protestant thoughts into a Roman Catholic discussion, but I'm hoping my agreement on the topic of contraception will mitigate any interference on my part.
