Prof. Potworowski and another expert, Guy Ménard, a professor of religious studies at the University of Quebec in Montreal, agreed there hasn't been such a broad, open protest in Quebec since the 1968 Humanae Vitae encyclical that declared contraception immoral.

Interesting. It's rare for the connection between contraception and homosexuality to be openly acknowledged.

True. Homosexuality and contraception both stem from the Leg-o view of sex: the idea that you can take it apart, throw away the bits you don't like, and then reassemble it in any shape you want. Which reaches deeper, into the Leg-o view of human nature (also alluded to in the article): that there IS no (created) nature, just whatever we want to make of ourselves.

Which in turn is fueled by a resentment that one is a creature at all: that there is a God Who made you, whose commandments are loving and wise and utterly fit for your nature, the way your Creator has created you to be.
