Does God condone the use of oral contraceptives? Why use them anyway? You can't get pregnant that way?

Answer 1

Oral?
There's no way I'm eating that thing.

Answer 2

God says to be fruitful and multiply. Some Christian denominations take it so far as to mean have all the kids your body can handle even if it puts your health at risk and "God will provide" so don't worry if you don't have the means to support even half of them on your meager paycheck since the mother stays at home.

Oral contraceptives (birth control pills. can people honestly not read?) prevent all that from happening so many denominations are adamently against it. Interesting though that non-Christian belief systems don't agree with that and have no problems whatsoever with oral contraceptives.

Answer 3

That is funny. There is no god to prevent the use of oral contraceptives.

Answer 4

I think it's not a black and white issue. Is it really better to keep popping out babies when you are not emotionally and financially ready for them? When you lack the maturity, relationship stability, and finances to properly care for them? I think God condones doing the best possible thing for our children (or future children), by taking responsibility to ensure that they are only brought into this world when we are capable of giving them everything they need and deserve.

Answer 5

Is oral sex wrong between married couples okay?


The Bible makes no clear mention of oral sex at all. Therefore, it is difficult to produce an official biblical position. Nevertheless, based on the information that follows oral sex is not sinful and that it is permissible only within the bonds of marriage between a husband and wife.
The book Song of Solomon is a love poem between a husband and wife. This book is seen in two senses: physical love and a description of God's love for His church. Either way, the book definitely encourages a husband and wife to enjoy the sexual pleasures of one another. It is in this beautiful book that two scriptures appear which may shed light on the issue of oral sex. Let's take a look.

Song 2:3, "Like an apple tree among the trees of the forest, so is my beloved among the young men. In his shade I took great delight and sat down, and his fruit was sweet to my taste."
Song 4:16, "Awake, O north wind, and come, wind of the south; make my garden breathe out fragrance. Let its spices be wafted abroad. May my beloved come into his garden and eat its choice fruits!”
Notice in Song 2:3 that it says, "...and his fruit was sweet to my taste." Obviously this involves very intimate experience. Tasting one another can have a wide variety of applications. It appears that this is a veiled way of alluding to oral sex. Furthermore, if we look at Song 7:7 we read, “I said, ‘I will climb the palm tree. I will take hold of its fruit stalks.’ Oh, may your breasts be like clusters of the vine." Apparently, fondling of the breasts is meant here. If such enjoyment of the body is intended, and since tasting (which involves the mouth) is part of that expression, it would seem safe to say that oral sex is permissible.
What does it mean to eat the choice fruits of his garden in 4:16? She is saying that she is "his garden" and that she desires that he eat of her fruit.
The poetic use of metaphors in describing the physical relationship is sometimes hard to fully apprehend, but it seems obvious from the context that intimate sexual union is implied.

"The beloved’s request that the winds blow on her garden, that is, herself (cf. vv. 12, 15) was a delicate, poetically beautiful invitation to her lover to fully possess her (come into her). She wished to be his with her charms as available as fruit on a tree."1

Therefore, oral sex is permissible between a husband and wife.

The pill allowed the whole world to go astray because sin without consequences was available. Or so they thought.
