Nah, Buddhism hardly makes an excuse for birth control. I respect many Buddhist traditions, but I don't agree with how they find "lust" to be a harmful human emotion. You do know that Buddhism was never intended to become a religion. The Buddha is honored for his knowledge, not worshiped for being divine. To be honest, I do believe that nirvana has some true basis, though. That's a whole 'nother, interesting story, however.
