Because preventing pregnancy except for abstinence interferes with the nature of sex itself and prevents the creation of life and anything that interferes be it mechanical or chemical with that process is virtually murder. You are stopping the creation of a future person. A person is a person at conception is what the fundamentalist churches believe. Natural law on sex naturally means procreation. And natural law is "God's" law. So to repeat it you are not allowed to stop the natural process of sperm and egg. ALL means are forbidden.
This belief system is what is behind Trump's latest moves on contraception coverage. So a woman should not have access to such measures even if she pays for it herself. Remember the next step is to prevent insurance companies from offering any coverage at all and for doctors to be prevented from even mentioning contraception in any form.
Look at what we are doing internationally. No funding for ANY international organizations that even discusses abortion. And by their logic contraception IS abortion.
We are in a new world with Trump. The religious fanatics now control the White House. And we now see Trump appointing judges who believe what I just stated.
