Below is the fourth and final installment on Real Catholic TV's series on contraception, featuring Dr. Martin Brenner.
Dr Brenner directs his comments to bishops primariy, admonishing them to instruct their priests so they in turn can preach Catholic sexual ethics from the pulpit. Listen to this key point at the 9:35 mark, "once you affirm contraception, there's almost no way not to end up in fornication." Two minutes later he says, "you can't have a prophetic voice unless you address this issue."
One important "aside". Many good Catholic pro-life people do wax nostalgic about the 1950s, as though going back to a society such as that is preferable to what we have today. Listen at the 27:00 mark as Dr Brenner exposes that wish as the dangerous fantasy that it is.

Contraception And Salvation - Third of Four Parts
I post here the third of the four-part series presented by Real Catholic TV of Dr Martin Brenner's reflections on contraception.
When he says, "most people are saved because of the dynamic requirements that they respond to in marriage," I don't know how that jives wth the revelations that so many saints claim to have received, that state that those saved are a very small percentage of the entire collection of humanity that has ever and will ever exist. Of course, both sets of opinions are precisely that - opinions. They don't define any dogma, one way or the other. I suppose, too, that according to Dr Brenner, salvation would depend on the quality of response to marriage - meaning, of course, that the usage of contraception in marriage would seriously endanger and perhaps render impossible the salvation of the couple. Our Lady of Fatima did tell the children that most marriages did not please God - and she was talking of marriages circa 1917. One can only imagine how she would deplore the state of marriages today!
The clip is below. At the end, Dr. Brenner gives a bit of a "teaser" for the final segment, which I'll post next weekend. Click here if you cannot see embedded video.

Contraception And Salvation
Last week I posted part one of Dr Martin Brenner's four-part series on contraception. I now post the second part. Among many things, Dr Brenner suggests that the embrace of contraception on the part of so many Catholics is a direct impediment to their ability to receive the graces of the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, whether offered in the Extraordinary (traditional Latin) Form or the Novus Ordo.

Watch and get a deeper understanding of why our clergy simply must stop playing patsy with this topic and start proclaiming the entire truth of the Magisterium.
