(OLD REGGIE) "Pope Paul VI said contraceptives should be illegal?"

PROVE IT.

I assume you know "Unlawful" is a synonym for "Illegal". Further, I assume you have no difficulty with understanding plain English.

HUMANE VITAE

Unlawful Birth Control Methods

Similarly excluded is any action which either before, at the moment of, or after sexual intercourse, is specifically intended to prevent procreation—whether as an end or as a means. (16)

Humanae Vitae is a discussion of moral law. Your quote is Paul VI's statement about what IS morally unlawful, not what should be civilly illegal.

Further, I assume you have no difficulty with understanding plain English.

Given your post, I assume you do.
