Roman Catholic AnswerThe Holy Father (the Pope) does not "allow" or "disallow" things on his own initiative. He is the Vicar of Christ and *only* teaches what has been handed down to him from the Apostles. He can not teach anything contrary to God's will, and he can not teach his own will. The Church, which is the Mystical Body of Christ and is led by the Holy Spirit has never allowed artificial contraception. It is a mortal sin. For a complete discussion of the subject see Pope Paul VI's encyclical letter: Humanae Vitae below:
