No, what I meant was that as a species we should assure our continued existence. Nobody *has* to reproduce. I'm merely saying that it is our primary biological drive, and enough of us must reproduce to ensure the continuity of our species.

Edit: If the survival of humanity was dependent on one person reproducing or not (highly unlikely I imagine...) than I suppose yes, they would be morally obligated to reproduce.
