This is the teaching but is it complete? Catholics are mostly ignoring the prohibition on artificial means of birth control. What the Church teaching does not seem to account for is the benefit of a deepening of psychological intimacy between responsible adults that comes about through having sexual intercourse. The big problem is that folks are not measuring up to the greater responsibility of sex with birth control. Society becomes more hedonistic and unmindful that pregnacies occur even with birth control devices and that, as the cliche goes, you are sleeping with whoever your partner is sleeping with so that STDs are having a field day. Of course the let it all hang out attitudes especially prevalent among the young unmarrieds of 15-25 years don't help.
