Well, based on my reading of the Bible ( I assume that’s the standard you want this discussion to be based on ):
The Bible does not specifically mention single parent households as sins.
However, it does condemn fornication, which is pre-marital or extramarital sex (regardless of whether or not a pregnancy results).
The Bible considers sex outside of marriage to be sinful (1 Corinthians 6:18, Hebrews 13:4).
On the other hand, I have not read the Bible outright condemning couples choosing not to have children within a loving marriage.
The decision to have children is a personal choice that should be made within the context of a committed relationship. However, the Bible does encourage couples to have children (Psalm 127:3-5). ENCOURAGING is NOT COERCING.
Genesis 38:8-10
8And Judah said unto Onan, Go in unto thy brother’s wife, and marry her, and raise up seed to thy brother. 9And Onan knew that the seed should not be his; and it came to pass, when he went in unto his brother’s wife, that he spilled it on the ground, lest that he should give seed to his brother. 10And the thing which he did displeased the LORD: wherefore he slew him also.
I do not feel like getting in a Catholic-Protestant argument, but now I see by original post there was no where else this would go.
i addressed the bible in my previous post…
But I look at South Korea with its 0.7 TFR as the epitome of loving and loyal marriages that are absolutely NOT fruitful…from a Darwinian perspective there is no way those types of marriages are a good thing.
