>>So the Bishops don't like it because they have offer contraception so they feel violated. The women want contraception but worry they won't be offered it. Ok who wins? Since it's the woman's well being and health is at stake and she's the one that will be pregnant is sure sounds simple to me. Why on earth should some old virgin man wearing a dress and a hat shaped like a giant rubber get to dictate any of this?

You are of course correct: taking a job with a religious institution causes IQs to drop by 50, making otherwise competent women suddenly unable to control their own fertility unless the Bishop takes charge.

Let me get in first for what inevitably comes next: the accusation that I regard contraception as a matter only for women. It is true: male options include rubbers and sterilization, but once again it should not be necessary for bishops to spell it out.
