The sin of Onan was that he wasted he seed by not procreating... The way I interpret this is that it was written at a time when the Hebrew's population was in decline. The story of Onan was created to encouge young men not to waste their seed but to go forth and multiply.
I just don't see how this applies in this day and age...
