Residents of Comey explained whether child free is considered a sin

Komi residents became aware that in the Orthodox tradition, the conscious refusal to give birth to children is considered a sin. Family and procreation are considered an important part of Christian life.

The desire to “live for oneself” contradicts the Christian view. A person should think not only about his own interests, but also about the upbringing of children.

Family ties are of particular importance, since children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren preserve the memory of their elders.
