They need to either stfu or pick a side and fund it. They can't have no contraceptives and no abortion. It's not rational.
But, how can they bring about the return of the dark ages if they're not involved in lawmaking the way they were then?!?
Can you imagine how frightening the power of the church would be if they had the lawmaking power they had then coupled with the technology to enforce it we have today? *shudders*
I can imagine how frightening the world would be, but I'd rather not because it's too scary.
