Card. Kasper made the following comments in an interview with WNYC Radio’s Brian Lehrer as transcribed in this article [‘The Church is not against birth control at all’: Cardinal Walter Kasper](http://www.lifesitenews.com/news/the-church-is-not-against-birth-control-at-all-cardinal-walter-kasper): > Lehrer asked whether married couples who already have “three children > and live in poverty” should not be “allowed to use birth control to > prevent more conception?” > > [Card.] Kasper responded, “**Well, the Church is not against birth > control at all.** … **It’s about the methods of birth control.** … I > do not want to enter into this characteristic…how they have to do it. > It’s their personal conscience and their personal responsibility.” The audio is here: [The Pope's Theologian | The Brian Lehrer Show](http://www.wnyc.org/story/popes-theologian/). The question is whether the Catholic Church is NOT all against birth control, and from the Cardinal's words, whether there are licit methods of birth control.
