Why is it considered selfish for married couples not to want children?

I've heard/read people say this and don't really understand why it's such a big deal not having children.

we were put on this earth to reproduce. Having children once married is part of your purpose.

It's selfish but that doesn't mean it's a bad thing.

I've have no problem with this. At one point, that was our plan. Plans change. The only part we didn't have worked out was who would care for us when we were older. Some people's kids won't care for them anyway, so that wasn't a big difference.

Since reproducing is really the purpose of sex with the added benefit of pleasure, I'd say it's pretty selfish.

There are enough people on the Earth now.

Didn't people reproduce long before there was marriage?

I don't think it is. Do you really want your children to have to deal with this country full of idiots in 20 years? I don't.

we need more to start using up this abundance of oil we're producing to drive the price back up

Quit hanging with morons.

BS, God gave me a free will to decide on my own what I would or wouldn't do.

Well what does marriage have to do with reproduction?

Just heard on NBC news that the U.S. population has doubled in the last 60 years.

Most of those are probably religious reasons. I personally don't think it is any of my business if someone does or doesn't want kids. Personally though it has made me a better person to have them. I think it has made me grow exponentially. I was an only child and wanted a larger family than I had. To each his or her own though.
