Is procreation a sin?
score:4
Accepted answer
Seeing as the very first commandment God gave Adam and Eve was "Be fruitful and multiply," that would be difficult to go with. Potentially, you might say, "we'll, that was before the Fall!" But, then again, after the flood, God commands Noah to do the same thing.
In general, you need to get beyond this idea that suffering is evil. It's not what we like, and it may not even have been God's first plan- but in His sovereignty, he can use it for His glory.
Suffering is the means that God uses to put Hope within us. If that suits His purposes, then it's fine with me. (Just don't ask me to like it!)
