Description
Summary:Father Herbert McCabe's article, ‘Contraceptives and Natural Law’, published in the November 1964 issue of New Blackfriars, was based on a paper which he had previously read at a philosophical conference held at Spode House. He was willing to adhere to traditional teaching and was concerned only to criticize a certain argument in its defence. I here publish the reply which I made to his paper at that time. I have the following credentials which are nowadays thought relevant: I am a married lay- woman with children and a professional career. I was not always prosperous or in possession of good prospects for the future, and am familiar with the fear of having more children, which makes contraception a temptation.
