I will grant you “theirselves,” but just barely. You have pushed against my fence of morality just about hard enough, spared only by confession that “the obvious solution is fewer births . . .” What you don’t seem to accept is that if population growth stops, then overpopulation will never occur. We cannot predict much about the world in 300 years, except that if population grows at the present rate, our descendents will have a huge problem. Can you not see how imperative population control is for our generation?
