Now you use the 'blood is life' argument. I'd stop if I were you. You're now arguing against yourself.

Actually I was simply arguing against your position (which was internally inconsistent, unless you also believe that contraception is murder).

BTW what will happen to me if I don't stop?

As wagglebee pointed out earlier, Christians believed that up to and including much of the past century. And no, I don't believe it is inconsistent. Murder occurs when something living is destroyed intentionally through malice. contraception prevents that living thing from being formed. That's the technical response.

The Biblical one is far more involved. Does it go against God's will? I'm not sure Jeremiah 1:5 says that. Contraception prevents a fetus 'forming in the womb'. God is speaking of knowing us before 'I formed you in the womb'. Thus He is speaking of a formed fetus. Others may look at this differently.

Nothing. I was merely pointing out your getting argumentative with yourself.
