...to think about some things

I ran across this and feel compelled to share.

The argument as to whether birth control pills prevent ovulation or implantation. Randy Alcorn explains it, so I won't have to, but in a nutshell, most pills these days are not contraception. Also that IUD, Norplant, Depo Provera and the like do not generally prevent ovulation.

He likened it to leaving a toddler unattended in a swimming pool. Bad things will happen. Not every time, but it would be ill advised to take that chance with your child.

I can attest to the fact that pills do not always prevent conception, I'll be happy to show you pictures of the kids I had while taking the pill. I am also sad to report that I used Norplant for several years, as I did the Depo. Now, the first time I was on Depo I did not have any menstrual cycles, which I am assuming meant that I did not ovulate. Good news. But with the 2nd time I was on the Depo and the time I was using Norplant, I did. Which probably means that there are some people who were for a moment and are no longer. We opted several years ago to go the surgical route, and have not researched the commentary regarding it, but hubby had a sperm count of zero, so that should be good for preventing conception.

So, please research the matter for yourself.
