17.2: Marriage - Contra-ception Contra-dicts Love

Crossing the Jordan

In today's episode we discuss sexual morality in light of the fundamental principal of true love, both revealed through nature and divine revelation of Jesus. We talk briefly about various sexual moral issues, but with a focus on contraception because contraception illuminates the heart of the issue of all sexual moral issues - the rejection of self-gift to and from another. It may seem like chastity is a suppression of love, but it's actually the virtue of perfect love.
