"This is an important natural law argument against deliberately chosen childlessness. In fact, a "marriage" that deliberately excludes children is not a true marriage, since one of the fundamental purposes of marriage is the begetting and raising of children. A concomittant purpose of marriage is the mutual care of the spouses for each other, for their own good and the good of society."

Fine, so my marriage is not a true one. Big deal we lived together for 6 years before we got married anyway. It is my choice not to become pregnant.

How about people who can't get pregnant - are they freeloaders with no purpose to marry?

What a hunk of junk.
