The *heart* behind contraception and NFP are identical: exerting control over fertility.

You're right, in a certain sense, that NFP can be abused if there's a contraceptive mentality behind it. But when NFP is done for the right reasons, it preserves openness to life, whereas contraception completely thwarts it.
