How Can Birth Control Be Wrong?
Part II
This is Part Two of a free three-part video class on the reasons behind the Catholic Church’s teaching against contraception.
In this video, I explain the natural law reasoning behind the teaching. What is natural law? (what rational beings must do to perfect their natures.) How easy is it to understand? (Yes!) Why does the Church rely on it if it’s not something revealed by God in the Bible? (Because God does not need to reveal things in His Word that the human mind can grasp and obey.)
Why do couples refer to contraception as “protection”? Against what? (An innocent baby.)
Is this teaching ever going to change? (No—because it’s true.)

No, I don’t believe that this is “just a crock….”. When my wife and I first married, now 45 years ago, mid 1970’s this was a topic of conversation because my wife did not believe in natural family planning, having no faith in the process itself and that her body did not have a consistent “clock” to rely on the ovulation process. We had a problem but were in love, etc. and both of us still wanted to be married. Moving forward, as I’m sure you know, Humanae Vitae was a very controversial Encyclical and I did not realize the gravity of the teaching as I understand it today. I believed that as long as we desired children that we would be consistent with the will of God. Indeed we had 4 children and now have two grandchildren. I don’t believe I’m alone and there are many people who practiced birth control. Can you address this concern for people like me. Thank you for doing so.
