Anglican Priests and Contraception

Cathleen Kaveny has an interesting reflection up on the dotCommonweal blog today about how Anglican priests who convert (married ones in particular) will need to change their views on contraception.

It seems there's going to need to be lots of flexibility from everybody involved on this one.
