{Contraceptive Politics}[18th August 1970]


[Redbook1:171][19700818:0000]{Contraceptive Politics}[18th August 1970]

18th August 1970.

            I suppose that the Pope’s hatred of contraception is genuine; I think he himself is genuine, if misguided....  In a democratic country population is a source of strength for factions, though not usually for the country; in Canada the French Canadians are, I think, largely Roman Catholic, and will multiply at the expense of the largely Protestant remainder.  In Ulster the Catholics will increase for the same reason, until (the Protestants fear) they take over the democratic control of the country.
