The church bans birth control on the ground that we have no right to interfere with birth. However, birth and death are two sides of a coin. It is modern medicine and its interference with death that has led to the population explosion, which in turn has necessitated birth control. I think if death control is ethical then birth control too is. My email id is solventz at gmail.com

It's more ethically and morally right than having children you cannot afford or take care of.

By church, what church do you mean. There are churches that do not ban or have anything against birth control.
I believe birth control is ethical. In a monogamous, marriage relationship, it allows couples to enjoy each other sexually and plan a family according to their needs. Although (as a Christian) I am against premarital sex, I believe it is better for someone to have sex with birth control (preventing pregnancy and aids) then to have sex without it.
Each culture/religion is different in what they believe about birth control. For some it may be a matter of population control, for others, it may be a way to safely plan a family and prevent unwanted pregnancy and STDs.

I dont think its a moral question. I think its all a relgious question. there is nothing immoral about birthcontorl. With the riseing population and and STDs birth control is almost a must. I truly think that birthcontrol happens in nature. In the book contact (jodi foster movie, carl sagan book) They ask her what are her views on homosexualty and what she said next has change my thoughts on lots of things. The person in the book said that homosexualty is Naturs way of birth control. The world is getting more and more crowded and homosexualty is becoming more and more common. and the two are connected. As a gay person i couldent agree more. Morals change with the Community and Conscensis of the masses.
Now on the religous front. as far as I know only one (again as far as I know) major (again thats major) relgion Dose not allow birth control. i am sure there are many sub branchs that Frown apon it as well. I know you can have morals with out religon but you cant have relgion with out Morals.

I believe birth control is ethical. To me, the ban isn't. If someone is too young or immature or irresponsible for a baby, he/she should make that decision. Raising a baby in a hurtful environment because you thought it was wrong to use birth control is unethical.

Yes, birth control is ethical. Religion does not deal in ethics, only mind control, so don't listen to them.

Human choice when it comes to oneself is the most ethical. Choices made that interfere with others or your natural environment need to be judged on a separate basis.

The question is wrong.
Birth control by its very nature IS ethical - adhering to a set of rules.
But is it MORAL is the question you are getting at - adhering to the tenants of a religion.

anything depends upon the conditions of society.ethics are formed for the better survival of human kind.once promiscuity was common among humans as group sex for sometime. then came the existence of family as an institution for better human living with certain impositions as religion came into existence for our well being..
