And not a single one of your quotes tells me not to ever stop fathering babies. There is no biblical injunction against contraception. There is plenty of interpretation by (supposedly) celibate men telling people how to manage their sex lives.

It is not the Catholic religion per se that forbids artificial birth control, but the Will of God through divine and natural laws. If fact, the Bible - Genesis 38:8,9,10 - states that God punished it by death because it is "a detestable thing."

Whether or not we obey God's laws and the teachings of His Church is up to each of us. The problem reduces itself to: how much do we love God and how much do we value our own souls and the souls of others?
