The is the reaction of the Catholic Church about contraception?

Answer 1

The Catholic Church has always been against all forms of contraception. Article 14 from Humanae Vitae(Encyclical Letter of Pope Paul VI on the Regulation of Birth) articulates this teaching [emphasis mine]: 14. Therefore We base Our words on the first principles of a human and Christian doctrine of marriage when We are obliged once more to declare that the direct interruption of the generative process already begun and, above all, all direct abortion, even for therapeutic reasons, are to be absolutely excluded as lawful means of regulating the number of children. (14) Equally to be condemned, as the magisterium of the Church has affirmed on many occasions, is direct sterilization, whether of the man or of the woman, whether permanent or temporary. (15)

Similarly excluded is any action which either before, at the moment of, or after sexual intercourse, is specifically intended to prevent procreation-whether as an end or as a means. (16)

Neither is it valid to argue, as a justification for sexual intercourse which is deliberately contraceptive, that a lesser evil is to be preferred to a greater one, or that such intercourse would merge with procreative acts of past and future to form a single entity, and so be qualified by exactly the same moral goodness as these. Though it is true that sometimes it is lawful to tolerate a lesser moral evil in order to avoid a greater evil or in order to promote a greater good," it is never lawful, even for the gravest reasons, to do evil that good may come of it (18)-in other words, to intend directly something which of its very nature contradicts the moral order, and which must therefore be judged unworthy of man, even though the intention is to protect or promote the welfare of an individual, of a family or of society in general. Consequently, it is a serious error to think that a whole married life of otherwise normal relations can justify sexual intercourse which is deliberately contraceptive and so intrinsically wrong. Also see the Catechism of the Catholic Church, no. 2370:

Answer 2

Roman Catholic AnswerThe Catholic Church is the Mystical Body of Christ, and as such should have the same reaction that Our Blessed Lord would have to a teenager who was pregnant: compassion and love.

Answer 3

Roman Catholic AnswerBecause God has forbidden it as something contrary to the nature He gave us, and the Catholic Church must teach whatever God has given us - from the Catechism: The use of mechanical, chemical, or medical procedures to prevent conception from taking place as a result of sexual intercourse; contraception offends against the openness to procreation required of marriage and also the inner truth of conjugal love (see paragraph 2370)

Answer 4

The church teaches that all forms of contraception are evil under all circumstances.
