Is the Catholic Church clear on the teachings of birth control? There is a pharmacy located on the property of our diocese that is selling birth control pills. When challenged the bishop says we have been misled and that the church is not clear on the teaching. I thought it was clear that contraception was an intrinsic evil. Does this take into account all populations and other uses for the pill?
 
Hi,

The Church does allow the use of such pill for medical reasons. But the Church is quite clear in its teaching the use of artificial birth control to contracept is mortally sinful.

Fr. Vincent Serpa, O.P.
