What precisely is the problem here?  Perhaps we can clarify that?

(1) If the problem is that civilization is increasingly defying the "natural
    order" of the universe by doing strange things to biomachinery such as
    in-vitro fertilization or the killing of foetii, then perhaps we should
    re-examine our lifestyles to be more in accordance with the "natural
    order", and eliminate all items and/or activities that may be in conflict
    thereof.  This may mean, of course, that we shall all have to live in
    natural caves, without electricity, gas, or even aluminum foil to make
    solar ovens, and of course the car has got to go, along with the
    computer, modern science of any description, and various other
    knickknacks that we have gotten used to (like indoor plumbing, brooms,
    and alarm clocks).

(2) If the problem is that the human tide is not in accordance with the
    Catholic Church, well, then perhaps it is because the Catholic Church
    is no longer "the solution" when it comes to religion, and the CC
    may (gasp) have to modernize its thinking in order to be more acceptable
    to the modern-day student, worker, philosopher, or county administration
    agent.  Certainly the idea that premarital sex is evil, bad, and
    to be shunned is anachronistic.

(3) If the problem is that women are too uppity and should be put back in the
    kitchen to cook food and bear babies for their menfolk while they
    watch TV, don't call us, we'll call you. :-)
