Vatican Claims Contraceptive Pill is Bad for the Environment, Sperm

A newspaper published by the Vatican has claimed that the contraceptive pill is polluting the environment and is responsible for male infertility.
The report in L’Osservatore Romano claims the Pill is responsible for releasing tons of hormones into nature through female urine, polluting the environment and causing unknown damage to the world around us.
But it gets better: these free ranging female hormones are also causing men to become infertile as well. The paper quotes studies by the WHO related bodies that some estrogen in the environment in large doses has carcinogenic properties, then matches them to male infertility.
The Vatican’s solution: natural methods of contraception, or to be more precise: not having sex (apologies for the translation):
The sad thing in all this is that if it is to regulate fertility, these are not the product required. The natural means of regulating fertility ( “NFP” or Natural Family Planning) are equally effective and also respect the kind of person.
But why stop there when you can cite the Universal Deceleration of Human Rights:
In this sixtieth anniversary of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights can be said that the means of contraception violate at least five important rights: the right to life, the right to health, the right to education, the right to (their spread occurs to the detriment of the natural resources) and the right to equality between the sexes (the burden of contraception falls mostly on women).
Not surprising, a number of experts disagree with the Vatican on the matter.

Gotta love those anti-Catholic intolerant bigots when they rear their ugly heads out of the sewer and cesspool of their immorality, only to shown blatant scientific and religious ignorance. “A number of experts disagree.” So what if they do? Who annointed them as experts? Is it education in liberal propaganda ministries called “universities” in the US? Bottom line is, this neanderthal won't look at the evidence and defense of human rights of the preborn and women who refuse to be polluted with high powered steroids (like the ones sports have banned) and to become chemical sex slaves, the true end product of year round hormonal ingestion.
Oh, and I am an “expert” with 30 years experience in research and clinical work and with a doctorate in pharmacology.

Oh dear. Now I know why I am a lapsed Catholic. The Catholic Church seems to have stooped to a new low with this garbage. If only they were open, honest and accountable.

OK, that's insane.
Catholic church always put up a controversy like this from time to time.
Now I feel a need to start reading those Dan Brown's books…
