Continuing to increase the world population is absolutely nuts.

    Sorry, but I’m disagreeing with you, in an unpopular way

    : P

    the average reproductive-rate need be managed,

    BUT …

    it is much saner to have some couples childfree ( which many, if not the majority, nowadays, want ), & then have total support for the reproducing mothers.

    I wouldn’t want any genetic child-of-mine to exist, for any reason whatsoever.

    However, since your, & my, & everyone’s, Soul/CellOfGod/ChildOfGod can ONLY have life-experiencings in a life, and since our Souls/Continuums already competed successfully for conceptions/lives,

    then it’d be idiotic to block/deny all other Souls/CellsOfGod to have lives of their own.

    ( that isn’t against your argument, that is against others’ arguments, in the reproduction debate )

    Since many lives want to NOT reproduce, but to instead have their own lives for adult living, and not for children-family living, isn’t that a right, too?

    Therefore, to keep the reproductive-rate where it needs to be, to fend-off economic-collapse ( there needs to be sufficient next-generation, or collapse enforces economic hellscape on all of us ), those who do reproduce, need to do-so at the required rate,

    and, obviously, social-support, education, etc, needs to be configured to back this reality.

    See?
