That's more of a religious question. While I will not get involved in the theology of contraceptives, as that is a different discussion to bear with someone else, I will say that contraceptives are very useful in preventing fertilization and preventing the spread of venereal diseases (STD's)

Catholic AnswerYes, a terrible sin which Pope Paul VI addressed in great detail back in 1968 in his magnificent Encyclical Letter Humanae Vitae, which you can read at the link below. Like all sin, contraceptives have consequences, and the consequences of a society that allows contraceptive is horrendous as anyone with vision can see in our society. Pope Paul VI was prophetic back in 1968 as he outlined all the horrible consequences that could befall a society that turned to contraception. And here 45 years later, we find out that he was spot on in ever one of his predictions. For anyone who feels the need to delay having a child, there is Natural Family Planning, which is not only MORE effective then artificial Birth Control, and has none of the horrible physical consequences, but is approved by the Church, does not harm women's health, and actually contributes to the love between husband and wife - exactly the opposite of the effects of artificial birth control. Please read the Encyclical at the link below, and be very careful of any confessor who tells you that it is "okay."
