(2,579 posts)You are right. Too many people don't want to face reality. Adopting the breeding dynamics of fleas and mosquitoes, or cancer cells, is not good for our planet. Earth is our only home, for the foreseeable future. Wisdom would be making the choices needed to heal as much damage as we can, and preserve and restore wherever possible. It really chaps my ass, when some people insist that those of us who advocate for population control and family planning are murderers who are advocating for living people to be killed. What we are actually advocating is that humankind reduce the incidence of harsher modes of population control by disease, famine, war, and collapse of the life support systems. That is not at all the same thing as advocating for living humans to go off themselves! Why is this so hard to understand? And, we have the Extreme Court trying to dictate to women that we have to carry every pregnancy to term, even if it results in our death, because their religion says that people with uteri only have value as incubators, on a planet where the life support systems have been strained beyond the level of sustainability. Thank you so much for stating a truth that too many people just don't want to see. Signed: the best gift I could give to future generations was to choose NOT to breed. Not sorry!
