I truly wonder if the birth rates are actually falling. Hypothetically think of birth rates if birth control/abortion(after birth included) didn't exist.shugo_lover wrote:I meant it as a natural instinct kind of thing. It just seems like humans don't really think along the lines of things like we would if we were living in the wild and that's what sets us apart from other animals because we don't do things based on instinct. However, maybe it's because of our higher thinking that has made us evolve and not need to think that way. Alright, I'm just getting off topic now.Kuukai wrote:This will totally change. Race is an outdated concept.

Anything "artificial" that humans do is just an extension of this rule of life to assimilate chaos and create structure. What's sad is actually how inescapable this is. Even when we're blowing stuff up, we're trying to do that.shugo_lover wrote:Humans defy everything that is considered 'natural'.
Global warming, for example, isn't a case of "artificial=bad" per se, just a case of us being too stupid to realize what we're doing is counterproductive to our goals. We're an imperfect system, like al llife. One could imagine a scenario when unintelligent, monocellular life on some other planet ends up facing the same problem and burning itself out due to its own carbon exhaust. So these aren't human problems, they're #lifeproblems
That said, we possess the power to screw up more rapidly than other life on this planet.
I think the number of pro life and pro choice is pretty split down the middle. That's just my opinion though, I'm not about to try and look up any statistics for it. Also, the whole mars thing was supposed to be in 2023. We have no business to be in space when we can't even fix things on our own planet. I don't think we're over populated but from a money and economical stand point, I think we are. I was reading an article the other day about how by 2020 I think it was, that all the welfare money will run out along with another system that's government related. However, I don't think this issue really has a lot to do with population and more of the government just giving it out to everyone even druggies and people who don't need it..(Phantom) Thief wrote:My default answer is no. I think If our actions were more effective then more of us would live. However since most of us are pro life, we might as well state yes to deal with a change or ten.. Heck someone's already planning a colonization project for Mars in 2022
A nation is only as strong as the people that hyper produce(whoever earns the most money/breadwinners) for it. With no reason for the hyper producers to exploit their full production a nation is going to be in a lot of trouble financially.
