Q

artificial and natural contraception

A

christians suggest that rather than using artificial contraception such as a condom, you should use natural forms of contraception. Some of these include; only having sex during a certain time in a womans monthly cycle when she is at her least fertile, to allow a couple some control over when they bring their children into the world.

Q

changing ideas of ppl on contraception

A

traditionally, the cathollic church has taught that condoms should never be used, even to stop the spread of sexually transmitted diseases, and that abstinance should be used instead.

However many christians have flocked away from this idea and one of the churches cardinals have recently accepted the use of condoms as they see it as the lesser of two evils between HIV/Aids and the use of condoms. The church of england teach that it is responsible to use contracpetion or the wellbeing of the parent and future child.
