In this world many many problems are caused by not having enough...
Not enough time, Not enough space, Not enough sleep, Not enough food,
Not enough room, Not enough of anything...
If you have room for only two people to live in a small house and
they have six to seven children - (as they do in many many poorer
countries where they have so many problems often they do not have
the ability to choose how many children they have) - You will end up
being crowded.
If you only have enough food for two people that means that those two
people have to share that food between themselves and six to seven
children when they are born....In these countries often the children
starve and die...and suffer greatly....In these countries often there
are great wars and plagues because there is not enough - because there
are too many children being born because they cannot afford to stop
all these children from being born - because they do not have the
means or education to do so...
Those of us who go to bed every night with food, and shelter...
because our system has provided for us to be able to
choose how many children we want to have or not have.
We have the things we have because we choose how many children
we have. But in poorer countries they cannot do that...for many
do not have the benefits of good food, shelter, and and
education such that they can learn how to stop having too
many children...
At one time we needed to have many many children for infant
mortality and death were very very high...Back then a person may
have had many many children and still not have any children
survive. But with the advent of many of our modern medical
practises and modern facilities we have decreased infant and
child mortality to where our populations have steadily grown.
To kill children is considered to be a terrible thing...but to
kill adults is no different. Many Many wars are caused by the
overcrowding, starvation, and illnesses that poverty and
overpopulation bring to people. This ends up in either plagues
which kill many many children and adults or worse yet in wars
which kill many many children and adults.
Too many developed countries say it is too expensive and difficult to
educate these countries and people such that they do not suffer
so much any more...Such that they can live in a better world
and place..so that they can raise their children in a better
world and place...Where their children can go to school, have
a full stomach, and not suffer so much. They say we can send
them more food so more children are born who will suffer but
we cannot afford to educate them so they can have a better life
and way to live...
But we can no longer afford to turn a blind eye, nor to feed the
problem...For as countries become more overpopulated they will move
over into our countries where they will have to spend a few
generations learning what we have learned. The plagues that
happen in their countries will come here to infect us and make
us ill. And we will see, hear and experience their suffering
which will also draw us in to help or to fight. We cannot afford
to not help, to not educate, to not care...for we cannot
afford a world of such unrest and suffering anymore...
for our world can only support so much life...
There is an experiment which is done by all young genetics students.
In this experiment six fruit flies are put into a closed system with
fresh air flow. Three are female and three are male. As the
experiment goes along the fruit fly population increases
exponentially...almost straight up in a curve pattern.
Before all the food and water is used up...all of a sudden
all of the fruit flies die. The reason is they have
contaminated their closed system.
We have alot of problems right now with wars, plagues, and pollution
in the world. We can make some different choices that will help all
of us...so all of us can survive. We have more intelligence than
fruit flies in a closed system similar to our world. Someone made the
rules and someone can improve them. We can all make choices for the
better. We are free will agents capable of independent thoughts
beyond action and reaction.
Three generations ago my family came from a world outside of the US.
They had seven children. The next generation some had seven some
had two. The third generation some had one some had five some had three.
My family we have only had two children from four children...
And two of us have chosen to not have children simply because
we wanted more for our children if we had them than what we
currently see offered to a world where there just is not enough
because there are just too many people.
People in the world are starving and suffering. It is a terrible
terrible thing. One country went to teach another country how to
increase its crop yield by 75%. The population went up by 75%.
Then there were that many more people who went to bed hungry every
night.
I am a believer in a supreme and just being/power of goodness.
I try to teach people that we were created with
free will and choice along with the ability to understand that.
All we have to do is listen...It is not noble to continue to feed
the bodies of the poor and not their minds...for the greatest wealth
of all is knowledge.
In the third world countries the average number of children born is 6.5
whereas
in the developing areas of the world where people have advantages of
education they
are decreasing in numbers. It is not only unwise to not help these
countries who
are having difficulties moving into the modern world it is also very
very unsafe
for the major way that their problems with overpopulation are controlled
is by warfare,
disease, and plague...all of which reach into our populations. This is
how world
population was controlled for many many years by our civilizations until
we learned
how to control population growth. (E.g. European Hun and Barbarian mass
invasions.)
