>>Onan was killed by God for failing to fulfill his obligation under the Law to his brother’s wife.<<

Exactly. The morality of contraception can be argued but not on the case of Onan.

Well put.

Without having to wrangle an interpretation out of a passage that really doesn't apply, God commanded men to go out and be fruitful and multiply. Not doing so would be disobeying God.

That alone would be enough of Scriptural support against contraception without loose interpretations of passages which don't really fit.
