it's so funny how people are so blindly indoctrinated by the myth that they still endorse it even when there is irrefutable counter-evidence to COMPLETELY FALSIFY it. When will human beings stop being so fuckin stupid!!!??

So you claim it will be a long wait? I doubt it. But if so, what are people supposed to do while they are waiting? Surely all the world isn't going to forget that they like having sex?

I read somewhere that only 7% of world pop, lives in countries where pop isn't growing. Some countries still growing, already have "huge" pops. India, China still, Indonesia, Nigeria, Pakistan, Philippines, Mexico, Brazil

Obvious answer is not to deny families, but accept grow denser

I don't believe in trying to "control" the natural growth. Let China fill its "empty cities," and encourage large families everywhere, and as the additional cities also overfill with people, keep building more cities and suburbs upon suburbs.

I'd love to see people in slums, move to more spacious houses. But I still do not believe in expecting people to use the nasty Big Pharma contraceptive potions and poisons. So cities need to grow freely as well, to make room.

Shantytowns in some regions, are huge, and crowded. In order for so many millions to have decent homes, probably entire cities will have to be built. So much so, that the entire world pushes a bit more towards becoming more highly urbanized. Well unless the economy shifts somehow, so that so many people would like nice new homes, in the more spacious countryside?

Are the pagan no-growthers willing to put aside their nature worship long enough, to build more cities?

Why is pop growth, not a good way to stimulate economic growth? Of course it is. I would much rather spend my money on my own growing family, than on runaway corrupt socialist machine state that ever raises taxes and disregards the suffering of the people that high taxes and stupid regulations causes?

Wicked pagans oppose their own human kind, which is insanity.

Economic growth is not okay, according to the pagan NWO no-growthers.

"Grow or die," they used to say

@pronatalist

If I recall correctly, you're the guy who groups atheists, evolutionists, zero pop growth advocates, environmentalists and communists under the general term "Wicked Pagans." Am I right? The world needs more "Wicked Pagans." Only the "Wicked Pagans" way of thinking can save us from the overpopulation disaster.

You believe the Earth is 6000 years old. You also believe Jesus is going to return and establish his "Kingdom on Earth." it will be a long wait. As in Forever.

Why else would tyrant Obama oppose a pipeline that costs us nothing, but has so many win-win benefits for us? He wants to weaken our economy, and is against the common man, which is TREASON.

World pop is already so "huge" that we need to build stuff. I'm not saying to raise taxes to build stuff, but rather, let people and companies who can make profits by so doing, build stuff.

People in China and India are getting cars. Should we give them our cars and ride Chinese bicycles?

Large families do not cause poverty, but poverty is an additional driver of large families and rapid pop growth. They say of the poor, that children are their only wealth. If poor people are denied any other sorts of wealth that might distract them from their natural duty to bear children, then why should we expect the poor to do anything else than multiply at the full fecund rate, which I advocate anyway?

Govs like to spend too much, when it's people should own $

@mosquitobight

So what must taxpayer pay for, in a growing pop? How about housing? Why should I help finance a house for somebody I don't know, unless I can lend the money and get it back with interest from voluntary investments? I should only pay for the housing for my own growing family.

Maybe roads? But the gasoline tax is supposed to pay for roads, according to how much, how many people use them. No need to jack up taxes there either, as rising pop would already grow revenue
