Reading things like this make me SO disgusted with the modern-day Pharisees that masquerade as Trads.
I'm sure it makes them feel SO good about themselves. They are just SO darn holy, as they look down on those rotten birth-control users.
Why don't they worry about their own souls? But Catholicism is so much more fun when the pressure is taken off oneself, and redirected towards others!
Too bad. We're responsible for OUR OWN soul, and not that of others.
We would all do well to worry about our own salvation, which is NOT as certain as some would have us believe.
Remember, no one gets a free ride into heaven. Jesus can raise up stones to be the seed of Abraham. That goes for us Trads too. God can raise up new Trad Catholics from among the atheists, let alone protestants or Novus Ordo Catholics.
God doesn't need us, strictly speaking. We need to prove how much we love Him by showing our love for others and following His Commandments.
In a sense He "needs us" to pray for, instruct others, and in general perform the spiritual/corporal works of mercy. But in the strict sense He doesn't need us.
