Mormons aren't the only people with large families. Ultra-conservative Jews, Muslims, and many Christians have large families. What I don't think I've ever seen is a couple who is non-religious or atheist and has a large family.

We have a neighbor down the street that is non-religious that has 5 kids (public school). Maybe that's not 'large' in your book though.

God says children are a blessing and I know it to be true. I'm grateful for all the children he gave me (7).

Catholics aren't so much anymore but used to be the same. My parents both had 5 siblings growing up.
Not all Catholics, just the ones who go to the traditional Latin Mass. :-)
Not sure if you are disputing something I didn't say but yes, you are correct.
