- Contraception
- Roman Catholic
- The Roman Catholic church believes
that using contraception is "
intrinsically evil" in itself regardless of
the consequences. Catholics are
only permitted to use natural
methods of birth control.
- But the church does not comdemn things like the
pill or condoms in themselves. What is morally
wrong is using such things with the intention of
preventing conception. Using them for other
purpose is fine.
- The church teaches that using artificial contraception is
wrong because: it is against 'natural law'; It gives human
beings the power to decide when a new life should begin
and that power belongs to god; It reduces male respect for
women.

- Civil Partnerships
- Many Christians have no problem
with civil partnerships saying that it
reflects the way that society has
changed over the years. The
quakers, in particular, have no
problem with civil partnerships
reconising homosexual couples as
no different to heterosexual
couples.
- Other Christians are less happy about
civil partnerships and feel that
homosexuality is against God's created
order
- In Genesis, Eve is created to be
with Adam. "For this reason a
man will leave his mother and
father and be united to his wife,
and the two will become one
flesh." This clearly states that a
marriage or union of any sort
should be male/female.
- Natural Law: you can tell whether or not
somethingis good by examining whether it fufils its
purpose. For example, the purpose of human sexual
relationships is ultimately to reproduce. A
homosexual relationship can't produce offspring so
must be against natural law.
