Mark Shea, devotee of the Apostle of Common Sense, has birthed a mini-conversation at his blog, inviting conversation on the NFP witch hunt taking place here (with NFP being the witch hunted for–not [...]
Do you belong to the “NFP cult”?
Blogger and Seattle acquaintance Mark Shea recently gave NFPworks a little nod in a post, which has attracted a clergyman in the combox who snarkily calls (and implies that I think [...]
Dustin over at Engaged Marriage did a blog entry on the TIME piece, “Green Sex, anyone?”, which has yielded more than a couple comments, most profusely visited upon by commenter named crow [...]

I’m filing this one under “Hello, McFly.”
This seems to be news to some– though sadly not on the radar of many–but Dr. Chris Kahlenborn has been saying this for years: taking synthetic hormones, namely hormonal replacement pills and oral contraceptives, for a sustained period of [...]
I now interrupt this NFP blog to report in local news:
I found a great motivational poster today (h/t to Mark Shea):
In an unrelated story, there’s a group of people in Madison headed to California, but found on flight to Rome.
UPDATE: [...]
I maintain that John Paul II is the foremost feminist of our time, and here’s a little commentary on why:
Last year I forced myself to read Eve Ensler’s “The Vagina Monologues.” It was a distressing literary pilgrimage, and I would advise anyone thinking about reading it to proceed with prudence. It [...]
