Points against introducing any changes in the contraception policy by the Roman Catholic Church:-

1. First of all, these people claim that the health science clearly provides that there are very high chances of getting sexually transmitted diseases if a person engages in sexual acts with more than one partner. At the same time, these people claim that doing so is also against the fundamentals of the religion or the Ten Commandments. Therefore, these people claim that sex has been defined only for the purpose of procreation. Therefore, having sex for any other reason is not good. Similarly, a responsibility has been imposed on the woman regarding themselves as well as for their potential child. People can have sex in marriage for the purpose of having children. The persons who are not in favor of any change in the contraception policy of the Catholic Church believe that the church also believes in contraception but only if it is through abstinence.

Points in favor of capitalism:-
1. The right to own property is considered as a major right that is present since the existence of the man.
