What year did the Roman Catholic Church condemn products for contaceptive?

Answer 1

It's just Catholic, not Roman Catholic. Roman is an epithet first commonly used in England after the protestant revolt to describe the Catholic Church. It is never used by the official Catholic Church.

The first document that we have of the Church officially condemning contraception was between A.D. 50 and A.D. 120 in the Didache (first link below).

The Catholic Church has *always* condemned contraception, but aside from a few outstanding examples (like in the Didache) Christians have always been known for their pro-life stance, and most especially on their opposition to any form of Birth Control, so it was never a big issue.

Then, of course, the protestant heresy came along in the 16th century, and in the 20th century, at the Lambeth conference in England, the Anglican Church first allowed contraception "in extreme circumstances" - this was the first time in history that a group that called itself "Christian" ever permitted God's plan for marriage to be frustrated.

Ever pope since the Lambeth conference has gone on record as condemning birth control, but then in the 1960's the "pill" came along, and society welcomed it, forcing Pope Paul VI to issue the most prescience Encyclical ever: Humanae Vitae (second link below), since then every pope has gone on record as condemning in the most forceful language the grave sin of contraception.
