Because it is in Genesis which contains a lot of things even devout religious people do not take literally. Some people on here equated it to a book of parables.
Genesis is Allegory, but one of the truths in it is be fruitful and multiply.

Tradition can't be dogma, but something a Pope said made it so? That is the slippery slope of organized religion. Does the Church still frown on regular contraceptives (rubbers, etc?) or was it revised to IUD's and the pill?
Tradition gave us the bible, if tradition never had an influence in the Church we wouldn't have certain dogmas like, divinity of Christ, trinity, etc. Yeah you can find those things in scripture but it was tradition it was the Church that defined some of the most important doctrines in the Church in the history of the Church. If everyone just read the bible and didn't come together to decide doctrine which the Church has done for 2000 years, Christianity is so much different.
