Or as I say, "If kids come with the package (meaning the partner God has blessed me with), SO BE IT!"

Shao wrote:God will give you what He will give up and it doesn't matter what you try to do. Sleep together every night, and you could never have kids. Do it once and have triplets. (Obviously if you never have contact with your spouse, you won't have any kids, but... yeah right.)
On a side note, I can kinda understand taking it for the hormonal part, if you're not married... But, seen the side effects for the pills? Heart attack and stroke risk? I'd rather have a normal period XD

Ok, I'll stop right there. So, I'm neither in majority or minority. I'm in the "it depends on what method you're talking about" group.
As for kids, I grew up in a small family (only 1 sibling, and I barely knew my cousins). I cannot imagine having more than 2. Two is more than enough to drain all my energy, resources and dedication towards their upbringing. Hahaha but I know it'll be worthed it and there'll be many happy joyful moments!
Hormonal pills are OK by me if you have imbalances which functionally interfering with your life. I mean, period EVERY WEEK? Oh dear Lord, that's awful. Once a month is bad enough. Someone pls help that poor woman.
Sorry mods, I can't help derailing this thread.
(Just curious, did any of y'all read the old testament story? Genesis 38:8–10 specifically...)
I haven't heard of many techniques of birth control... I have only heard of a pill that you take like frequently and stuff... but usually when someone takes it...they take it...all their life?

Ashley wrote:First, I heartily disagree with the whole "you can sleep with someone every night and not have kids." If you are both healthy, there is no medical reason pregnancy should not occur with repeated intercourse. I'm not saying God isn't responsible for life, but I do believe He works through completely natural means.
Secondly, those risks are for specific age groups of women WHO SMOKE. If you never smoke, and you're not pre-menopausal, birth control is completely safe for you.

I dunno... There's just something not right about messing with God's natural order. Happens enough these days.
Maybe since what exactly Onan was killed for isn't clear, we ought to be on the safe side of things? In case it was wasting himself, in case it was being spiteful, etc. (Just a thought on this one case.)
For the record, Momo, when Abraham married Keturah some time after Sarah's death, he had several more kids.
Well, duh! He loved Sarah. Do you yourself think he'd treat her less just because she was barren and still love her the way he did?
