Well you can think what you want but when I had children it was in the hopes that they would bring good to the world. That they may be the one to find the cure for cancer or bring people out of hardships.It was certainly NOT for any of the reasons you mentioned.

That may be true but it is very easy to prevent and does not change the fact as to why the people gave into the instinct.

Your point is moot unless someone in that article said that everyone should quit having children. Perhaps I missed that part.

You seem to be arguing with something that no one has said.

No the point is not moot because the people in this story think that those that have kids are ruining the planet. I am well aware that every person will not agree with them but the point I was trying to make is that these people think it is more important to have a clean planet with no one on it then what we have now.

Some people have children because they believe it is God's will.They may or may not have a "profound" desire to reproduce but for some,pleasing God is more important than pleasing themselves and very few would call this selfish.On the other hand,"destroying" or even "preventing" life may be viewed by some as indeed selfish!

Please that article was chuck full of hysterical rhetoric.

If all women adopted these womens attitude the human race most certainly would end.

These ladies are barking mad. Not because they don't want children but because they actually believe not having any saves the planet whilst viewing mine and everyone else's children as sinister threats.

Basically they're total $hit for brain a$$holes so in a weird sorta way we really should get completely behind this lunacy and fully support their intents to not breed and while I may not believe they're saving the planet it's likely they're doing humanity a favor by not adding their ilk to the mix. The last thing the world needs is another liberal bat$hit brained a$$hole running around tilting at windmills

You and I obviously are reading two different articles. The one I read also included these paragraphs which appear to be anything but hysterical rhetoric.




I find your attitude incredibly judgmental. It is an absolute and indisputable fact that the human race is having a detrimental affect on the planet. And eventually we (the human race) will pay the price for it just like every other creature on the planet.

What is barking mad is believing that we can continue to abuse the planet and survive as a race.

These people are devoting their lives to helping clean up the planet and, as part of that effort, have chosen not to add more humans to the mix. They are doing this for those precious children that you and others claim to cherish.

Maybe you could show them a little respect.
