Don,
1.) People are not "dust in the wind". They are children of God.
2.) The overpopulation problem in the world is not due to too many
people,
It is due to too little democracy and free-enterprise.
3.) The high productivity rates are due to people choosing to
have lots of children, not the diet. Now we all know exactly
how to regulate the number of children we have through
various means. The falling birth rates in Germany that you
cited are due to choosing not to have children, not the diet.
4.) The population of the Earth will soon be greatly reduced due
to come up-coming wars. I estimate that in 100 years the
Earth's population will be 1% of what it is now.
5.) The Earth with 20 Billion nice people would be a nice
place to live. The problem is that the Earth has too many
not-nice
people in it. Greed and Evil (now there's an old idea) make
for pollution, crime, inefficiency, and poor decisions.
6.) Agriculturists did not invent war. War among H.G.'s was not a
game.
They were simply fighting about slightly different issues.
7.) Overpopulation is a symptom, not a cause, of problems.
Individual freedom and accountability is the cause. I
hate cities with their scarry people and crowding.
A city with nice poeple would be a very nice place to live.
