I usually hear it from one of two camps (or both at the same time).

  1. The world (read capitalist economy) can’t continue to grow without ever-growing population.
  2. The (Christian) Bible says that sex is for making babies. Getting married implies having sex. So, if you’re getting married you’d better be making babies.
