"God's Law"

To the Editors of the CRIMSON:

The "God's Law" aspect of the birth control controversy is amazingly inconsistent. We are told that "Birth control is against God's Law," yet the majority of Protestants and Jewish leaders approve of the proper use of contraception, while the Catholic Church approves of he "Rhythm" or "Legitimate Birth Control." The great majority of married couples in Massachusetts, both Catholic and non-Catholic, practice birth control.

The slogan "Birth Control is against God's Law" is probably the most immoral and the most stupid creed over proposed in the history of man. Uncontrolled birth rates must inevitably and rapidly lead to starvation, misery, ignorance, and high death rates. Population growth must be controlled either by high death rates or by low birth rates. There is no alternative. Karl Sax,   Professor of Botany
