I really don't understand why some people -- particularly people within certain racial/social/religious groups -- choose to reproduce past their economic means to support themselves and their families? I mean, it isn't a hard concept. If you make $35,000 per year, you really can't afford to provide for 4 children. So why have them? It's a completely ludicrous concept.
And the example I made applies to the Western world, where $35,000 per year is basically nothing. What about the Third World? Why is it that we see average birth rates of, for example, 5.54/woman in Afghanistan? What in the world makes them think they can support that?
We don't have a poverty crisis, or a food crisis, or a potable water crisis -- we have a moron crisis. Until these idiots who choose to reproduce past their means learn that they shouldn't, then they will continue to die in droves (in the 3rd World) or be desperately poor/dependent on the government (in the US/Europe). And quite frankly, any religion or religious leader who tries to convince it's followers otherwise is both self serving and criminal.
