Define birth control.

The Catholic Church teaches that (married) couples may certainly space children or avoid conception when a serious reason exists. That would be “birth control.” It is not *inherently *immoral.

There are moral *means *of doing so, such as abstinence based methods like natural family planning, and there are immoral *means *of doing so, such as contraception and sterilization.

We may never choose gravely evil actions such as contraception and sterilization. But, we may certainly choose periodic or complete abstinence.

What a bizarre question to randomly post on a Catholic forum.
 
1ke hit it right.

You can use moral birth control, such as NFP.

You cannot us immorial birth control such as the pill, condoms, IUD’s, diaphrams, withdrawal, etc.
 
Exactomundo.

Abortion, after all, is “birth control” too.

Best, methinks, to use the term “contraception” rather than “birth control”.

Abstenance is birth control too. 😉
