I am calm. I'm just trying to jar you into recognizing how, er, ridiculous your position is.

All I'm suggesting is that if couples engage it and the wife becomes pregnant, either through failure to use contraception or through failure of the contraception they used, they be expected to allow the life they have created the same opportunity...

Your logic is all wet. You're not expecting anything of a married couple you're not expecting of an unmarried couple, that is, delivering a baby. If the couple doesn't want children or doesn't want any more children, the same rules would apply as to unmarried couples--the only sure way to prevent pregnancy is still abstinence. Doesn't matter if your married or not. You're simply assuming that a married couple will accept the family addition more readily than an unmarried one, which may be the case but it doesn't make your assertion that those who don't want the kid shouldn't have sex.
