Summary
Provides philosophical and theological arguments to show that the use of contraception is morally wrong inasmuch as it is contralife, that the practice of periodic abstinence to regulate births (natural family planning) is not morally equivalent to contraception, and that the Catholic Church's teaching on contraception, which Pope Paul VI reaffirmed in his encyclical "Humanae vita" (1968), already was taught by the Catholic Church in a way which meets her criteria for proposing teachings infallibly without solemnly defining them.
