		<description>I&#039;m sorry but I&#039;m also one of your readers who disagrees with the generalization that somehow NFP leads to lower divorce rates.  As someone has mentioned before this AT BEST is a correlation.  One to say a small percentage of Catholics use NFP and then compare that to the total number of people that use NFP is inaccurate.  The are most definitely not the same sample size and should not be compared via percentages.  What WOULD be interesting to know is what percentage of NFPers are indeed Catholics and/or practising Catholics, what percentage consider themselves &quot;religious&quot; and what percentage are in the &quot;neither&quot; category.  That kind of figure is more reliable than a generalization.  

This is not a comment against NFP however.  I think all couples should be knowledgeable, know their options and do what&#039;s best for themselves.  From the age of about 18 or 19, I&#039;ve always known about my body, my cycle, when I&#039;m expected to be ovulating, the signs of ovulation etc so I&#039;ve always been aware of that.  Everyone woman should have this information I believe.  Myself and my husband currently use condoms, i&#039;ve never in my life been on the pill.  I&#039;ve never had any adverse effects or reactions to the condom (though some are allergic to it).  

All in all, like I said before, do what&#039;s best for you.</description>
