Join Fr. Chris Alar as he discusses the very important issue of Contraception in the light of Church teaching on this episode of Explaining the Faith.
CLARIFICATION: Sorry for the confusion, but some people misunderstood and thought I said a person conceived from IVF doesn't have a soul. That is not true at all! All living things have souls (it is what animates them) but only humans have "rational souls." So nobody is alive without a soul. And that doesn't mean that God and the parents don't love them! I stressed that in the talk. What it means is the Church says it is a concern when those children are conceived without the love-making act. That is what is missing.... it is not the soul that is missing.
Thank you and God bless.

I’ve used contraception one time with recommendations from my doctor and my mother. When I learned the church taught it was not good…. I stopped and never used it again.

It's no coincidence that I was just thinking about why contraception is wrong. My 2 coworkers were chatting about their IUDS/contraception and I was very saddened about their choices to use such junk on their body. Pls pray for all of those women who do not know. And that God may give me the right words to say to defend marriage in its totality.

Dear Father Chris - First I must thank you for the most beautiful and necessary subject of our times. If anything, I believe the rules of the Catholic Church have driven out so many Catholic women from Christ’s Church and caused further and more dangerous methods of so-called living the full life . . . when it is so selfish, unfulfilled and has caused great destruction to the human family. I have attempted to speak about this at times but fallen so short that I stopped attempting to speak anymore. Then you, Father Chris have given the most entire, comprehensive and loving sermon possible and I will be grateful for this for the rest of my 80 year old life. I am certain that I will listen to this many many more times before the year is up so that I might have the ability to counsel someone or direct them to your loving information. It is my hope that all women (and men) get to hear this during their lifetime. It is probably the most important issue of our day. All Prolifers should have this information for the love of God and each other. 🙏🏽❤️🙏🏽❤️🙏🏽❤️🙏🏽

I am learning more about becoming a Catholic(I joined RCIA too late so I’m sitting in to listen/learn/ask questions) in hopes of being accepted next year🙏🏽. I’ve watched 2 of your videos and it brings me more peace each time knowing the Catholic Church has had so many of the answers I’ve been seeking for my entire Christian walk that others would just say “it’s between you and God”. It would bother me to no end knowing so many other churches don’t have a definitive answer in hopes of not offending anyone. Thank you, thank, thank you.

A very hard message for me to hear, Father Chris, for many reasons. I’m an informed, faithful Catholic, who always has a hunger and thirst to learn more about the faith. However, due to my own “baggage”, I had to literally force myself to watch this and by the Grace of God I have a better understanding now of what I didn’t want to know 😆 but really need to hear. Thank you for that and I pray that more priests would better explain these issues from the pulpit. Stay courageous!

Thank you for accepting the children God sees fit to send to you without apology in your marriage. I wanted +/-'4 children but lost one, and had one beloved son who recently died just days after his 49th birthday. We were so close. It was my honor and privilege to be his mother, best thing I've ever done. I married a non- Catholic, a narcissist which I in my naive attitude took as confidence, who became a womanizer and alcoholic, and who chose to walk out on us when my sweet son was 5. I had to go to work to support us, and sacrificed to send him to Catholic school 1st thru 12th grades and some college. He became an EMT and later worked in a vocation in Law Enforcement from where he medically retired. I, on the other hand, developed auto immune issues and developed health issues the latter half of my life which I'm still working to help repair, if possible, the damage, which is helping some in my later years. I treasure the lifetime relationship I had with my son, and thru God's rich blessings, have a similar relationship with my grandson, my son's only child. We talk about anything and everything. I love him so much. I pray for him that he doesn't lose his gift of faith in this crazy, evil infested world. He'sa senior in high school this year, 17 going on 32 some days -wise beyond his years one moment and so naive the next - has a sweet girlfriend and they both have taken chastity pledges until marriage. He values her as a person a lady, an equal. So sweet to see. He plans in going into trade school to learn a life craft to support himself and any future wife and family. I thank God for always being with me in this journey of life. I couldn't have survived without His constant help and guidance. May God richly bless you with many wonderful grandchildren to enjoy.. God bless you.

So NFP it's a fraud on another level too, because as you perform NFP which is not easy by the way as you perform it, you were being very deliberate and how you're behaving and acting such that people who are very serious about it can't even share a bed with their wife during certain times of the month because they don't want to become physically involved, and then having an accident So your behaving very deliberately to do what ? Putting forth a lot of energy and effort to avoid conception in Latin we would say it's contraception, natural family planning is contraception. period ! . Does it really matter what weapon you choose The intent is murder, and you if you pull it off you've committed the sin ,If it is a sin to avoid pregnancy it doesn't matter what method you use if you approach married life to avoid conception and doesn't matter what method you use your intention was sinful. I've heard is that natural family planning is a non-act because you're abstaining it's, non- act you've abstaining in relations for long periods You can commit sin, you sin by a non-act as well .For instance by not giving life-giving care to somebody or not feeding somebody You can commit murder by a non act ,and because nfp is a non act So you also don't get out of it . Don't kid yourself - If walks like a duck, and quacks like a duck , it a probably a duck.

Thank you Fr for such an informative talk. I wish I had heard this talk many years ago. I remember hearing the Catholic Church didn't "like" the use of birth control but not that it was that bad. NFP was around but didn't seem to be widely discussed. We always thought we would have children but only at the "right time." We even gave each other father's day and mother's day cards in celebration of future children for several years. Then that stopped. I felt a fear that I would not be a good parent. If I had stopped birth control I know my husband would have been fine with that. Now well past use and finally confessed, though I still didn't know the true sinfulness of it. Feelings of sorrow fill my heart.

Fatherly Alar, that was an absolutely wonderful teaching! I wish this could have been explained to me when I was younger. We really need to spread the news about how much contraceptives are a devastating contaminant. That info is vital! BTW, I thought it was adorable how you struggled to deliver the teaching, while trying to avoid a backlash. We faithful need to understand we can't claim to be of faith, while choosing for ourselves what WE want to follow or not. We must follow what is taught. In my day, we were told, "Don't ask the why, just have faith". Fr Alar, thank you so much, for explaining so many why's. I might have to move to your area, so I could have you as my spiritual counselor. ;) Stay blessed! Much love...

Listening to your talks, has taught me more in the last month or so since I found you, than my childhood of going to church. I was born of an unwed mother who ran away, baptized as a Roman Catholic, grew up with my grandparents of a ukrainian catholic parish in a small farming community in Alberta. Did not realize I was accepting communion before I had been confirmed. Did not go to catechism growing up, And was not taught proper church teachings by my grandparents,God bless their souls. I’ve always been strong in my Catholic faith I would never turn away from it but I’ve never practised it as a true Catholic should have. I have done so many things wrong and I don’t know if I could ever make up for any of it. But everything you are trying to teach us makes so much sense and I have never wished more in my life than now to have had this when I was younger which would have probably made my life a lot better. I am just trying to find my way, and find the one thing that can guide me to hope that God can forgive me of all my sins. Thank you Father.

@@cwilchiw2081 join the group. I attended Catholic elementary and high school and still didn't know much of what Father Chris teaches! I knew parts but not the whole, not all the right and wrong and why's, and what I should do instead. I made lots of errors, mistakes, poor choices,, wandered away for a few years, but missed the actual presence of Christ in the tabernacle of the Church. He brought me back. I didn't understand the wealth of help and intercession of the Blessed Virgin Mary! Boy I could have used a lot of her help and grace. But in an effort to learn, become closer to God, understand and accept His teachings, and the Church I began listening to different Catholic teachings, book references, etc. I bought the recommended books and read. During C0v1d I found a wealth of good solid teaching and Masses on KZfaq and have availed myself of them all, buying and reading more books as well. Finding Father Chris' talks has been such a blessing! Now I can make better confessions, better choices for myself and better instruct and guide my developing adult( 17 year old) grandson, teaching from a position of understanding and knowledge and direct him to Father Chris' talks for further info as well as other speakers I've found. The devil is running out of time. He is active and unfortunately doing very well here on planet earth fomenting chaos, hate, and dissidents. Many are following his path for absolute power and control over others.. Pray without ceasing. God bless. One of my favorite phrases is,, "when the student is ready, the teacher appears." Keep up the good fight and keep learning and sharing.

Perhaps if couples understood the full implication of using contraception they would be willing to use natural family planning. Your explanation sheds light on the spiritual aspect of the reproductive act. This is information that must be taught, we would not be able to come to these realizations on our own. I attended catholic school for 12 years and (secular) college and I would never have understood it in this way.

Fr. thank-U for the LOVE - TRUTH of the Church given by our GOD who is LOVE & TRUTH itself. So please Fr. do NOT keep apologising for speaking love-truth. From Genesis to Revelation GOD NEVER apologises for his word of truth & neither do the patriarchs, prophets, apostles & all other Holy men & women of GOD. Love -Truth has NOTHING to apologise about/for. Pointing out sins & evils for the sake of correction & salvation of souls is absolutely necessary as the truth sets us free.

@@DivineMercy_Official True. But neither did everyone understand in the Bible. In fact Jesus was accused by a scribe(?) for insulting Pharisees in his "Woe to you..." narrative. But that did not deter him & neither did he apologise & say sorry i am not criticising U. Other love-truth speaking biblical figures were vigorously opposed & ridiculed for their prophecies but NEVER did they apologise in any size, shape or form for criticising the people's sinful behaviour & the dire impending consequences. Nevertheless I think your talk was excellent as it gave absolute clarity to this contraceptive mentality & tragedy of our time. Well done✔

God did teach about contraception in the bible. Onan`s brother died and Onan had to take his brothers wife,by law, to raise up children on his brothers behalf. Onan didn`t want to fully comply. He had intercoarse, but spilled his seed on the ground and God then killed Onan for that evil act. Genesis chap. 38 verse 1-11.
