Yet another USCCB draft:

Contraception introduces "a false note" that disturbs marital intimacy and contributes to a decline in society’s respect for marriage and for life, the U.S. bishops say in a draft document that will come before them at their fall general meeting in Baltimore.

The brief document, called "Married Love and the Gift of Life," is intended for use as a brochure and is in question-and-answer format.

Developed by the U.S. bishops’ Committee on Pro-Life Activities in collaboration with the committees on Doctrine and Marriage and Family Life, the document strongly supports natural family planning, saying it "enables couples to cooperate with the body as God designed it."
