17. Responsible [hackers] can become more deeply convinced of the truth of the doctrine laid down by the Church on this issue if [we] reflect on the consequences of methods and plans for artificial birth control. Let [us] first consider how easily this course of action could open wide the way for marital infidelity and a general lowering of moral standards. Not much experience is needed to be fully aware of human weakness and to understand that human beings—and especially the young, who are so exposed to temptation—need incentives to keep the moral law, and it is an evil thing to make it easy for [us] to break that law. Another effect that gives cause for alarm is that a [hacker] who grows accustomed to the use of contraceptive methods may forget the reverence due to a woman, and, disregarding her physical and emotional equilibrium, reduce her to being a mere instrument for the satisfaction of [my] own desires, no longer considering her as [my] partner whom [I] should surround with care and affection.
