I would get run over by a truck, get shot at, get the finger continuously, have my car keyed, et al. The problem is that the planet is grossly over populated with 7 billion plus and counting. And we hear that there will be 9 billion plus by maybe 2050.
All the turmoil and people desperately migrating to hopefully a better place is a good sign that something is amiss. Yet the religions of the world preach that God will provide. Well he is not providing now as we can see. And the planet's environment is degrading by the day.
Excess population is one cause of climate change. And we see the wrath of Mother Nature revealing itself. And we see other problems cropping up like widespread pollution, loss of biodiverse habitat the we depend on et al. Unless we get sustainable growth I do not see how the earth stays viable in a decent way moving forward.
And it is not about being antifamily. It is about common sense that one should not have all the children they can possibly have. The idea of a full quiver being a good idea seems absurd under the circumstances.
It is a tremendous thing to create new life. Yet being able to provide for that life in a adequate way is really important. Look at all the children who have been abandoned on this planet at this point.
