Way back in the day when I was getting married. The Catholic Church required the couples attend pre-Canna conferences just to make sure we knew how to live a good Catholic Marriage and, given the state of sex education in the Catholic Schools at the time, how to make more Catholics.
My wife and I had to get “dispensation” since for the last year of our engagement, we were living 700 miles apart. Nonetheless, I was advised to talk to a priest. So I found a Catholic Chaplin who said, “You know the Church’s stance on contraception, right?” It was a yes or no answer. There was no discussion on whether I intended to comply.
