I feel that this applies manly to Protestants since neither Catholics nor Orthodox have high views of it. Isn't Birth Control a sin?
In most cases I would consider abortion a sin. I've heard Catholics are okay with rhythm.I feel that this applies manly to Protestants since neither Catholics nor Orthodox have high views of it. Isn't Birth Control a sin?
The RCC allows birth control in the form of NFP. So they're not against birth control, just against having sexual relations during that time period of about 8-12 days.I feel that this applies manly to Protestants since neither Catholics nor Orthodox have high views of it. Isn't Birth Control a sin?

NFP? Sure, but if you get pregnant, you need to have the child.I've heard Catholics are okay with rhythm.
I would think so.NFP? Sure, but if you get pregnant, you need to have the child.
That's unfortunately because birth control isn't used here to promote sexual immoralityI don't see anything wrong with birth control that prevents conception.
In my experience, too many Christians have been judgemental about birth control without really thinking it through.
And some forms of birth control are used for purposes other than preventing pregnancy. I know of one woman who had a Christian pharmacist refuse to issue her with the pill because she was single. And I've sat through a sermon about how any so-called Christian single female who took the pill was living an immoral lifestyle because that would be your only reason for taking it. I was devastated, as at the time, I was taking the pill to control extreme hormone fluctuations, which left untreated resulted in cramps that were as severe as labour pains - the attitude of many Christians left me feeling 'dirty' for taking it, even though I simply could not function without it (and was a virgin anyway, so hardly the immoral sex-maniac of their beliefs!)
