Who needs birth control?

The use of contraceptives is against some people's religion. I wonder how many take it seriously. When the Bible was written a woman needed to be pregnant almost all of the time if she were to have two children survive to have children of their own. In those days much use of birth control would have almost eliminated grandchildren.
To be consistent, anyone who is against the use of birth control should also be against all modern medical care for children and women.
