As a Catholic I’d concede that despite the best efforts of Pope Paul VI we didn’t help matters much...
That’s true. No discipline from Church leaders.
But at least they didn’t officially give in. I mean call 1000 random churches up in 1976 and ask if they officially condone bc within marriage. Check back in 2016 and see if they now condone abortion or ‘gay marriage.’ Have any of the churches who officially condoned abortion or ‘gay marriage’ in the interim done so without first condoning bc within marriage?
