1. Try not to post while you're drunk.
2. I'm not the anti christ(at least not that I know of) - but I have come to believe you're a die hard Christian.

A rational one.

the world population is likely to level out or plateau as countries industrialize family size gets smaller...

Indeed, this is possible. There was an article covering this issue in a recent volume of NG - we're only still growing due to some countries. Among them was Brasil, India and Pakistan plus a belt in Africa going from North to South.
(Rem: The Chengs were not(!) among them)

here is a hint to all the retards....the earth is not over populated... the problem is that the earths resources are NOT evenly distributed...

Bro, we're NOT discussing the question how to feed the earth's population or how to fight famine - this issue could be solved, theoretically - if I remember correctly we could feed up to 13 billion people.
The question is: Do we really want that?
Resources are always limited, just imagine in how much destruction of our planet(well, not the planet but it's F&F) this will result!
Do you honestly believe we're that much the pride of creation we could justify that?

The major unsolved issue is the lack of old age provision in those countries, so they rely or their children to feed them during their final stage.
It's in a way perversely funny we have a financial system to solve this problem - but it relies on population growth too and will crash in the absence of it.
Snowball systems rock, don't they?

ah yes one of these "the world is over populated idiots" why dont you go kill yourself...i mean if you really believe that the earth is overpopulated why dont you do it...o yea you dont really believe it...its just a vehicle for control freaks to impose regulations and rules on the people of the planet

Thanks for the name calling.
I must ask you again how you came to the conclusion your suggestion never crossed my mind?
It did, and still does.

On the other hand I think not reproducing and trying to change people perspective of the issue is more result oriented than your suggestion.
