Do Mormons use contraception

Answer 1

I think they believe it works, if that's what you mean. There are no prohibitions in Buddhism, so it is allowed to use Birth Control, but it is preventing a being from being reborn, so it might only prolong your stay in Samsara - the cycle of rebirth. The person who might have been conceived and born had you not used birth control has karmic ties to you. Preventing that person's rebirth could be a lost opportunity for all of you to clear negative karma. On the other hand, preventing a pregnancy could also prevent a lot of suffering in this life. Only an enlightened being can really know if allowing or preventing the pregnancy will avert the most suffering. Being mindful and honest with yourself, and cultivating compassion for yourself, your partner and anyone else involved can guide you in decisions about birth control.

Answer 2

why shouldn't we. If someone doesn't want a baby then they should be able to take birth control. It's abortion we don't like.

----

The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (the "Mormon" church) teaches that married couples should have children and that this is part of God's plan. They do not preach for or against birth control. Mormon couples are told that the descion of when and how many children to have is a personal choice between themselves and God alone. Most Mormons, at least in the US, will use birth control at some point in their marriage.

Answer 3

Yes, some members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints do use birth control. While Church leaders stress that members should not hold back in having children, they also say that children should be born into a home that is prepared and able to care for them. Most Church members have large families but will use some form of birth control until they get their marriage established or if health or financial problems would make having another child too difficult. When a couple decides to have children and how many they have is between them and the Lord. However, the Church and it's members do not support abortion except in rare cases of incestual rape or if mother and baby are not expected to survive childbirth.

Answer 4

Yes. The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (the "Mormon" church) has no official doctrines regarding contraception or birth control. The Church teaches that children are a gift from God and that they should be welcomed with open arms into a family, but also teaches that children should be brought into homes where they can be loved, taught, and provided for. Many Mormon couples use basic contraception during times when they are financially unable to care for more children or if the health of the mother would make pregnancy and birth dangerous. Couples are advised that the decision of when and how many children to have is between them and God, and that they should follow the guidance they receive from God on the matter.

Mormons are against abortion except in rare cases of rape or incest, or when the life of mother and child are threatened. Abortion is unacceptable as a means of contraception.
