I think there is an overall consensus that birth rates in US and Europe have been falling for decades although world population has been growing.
But the problem is also that people are getting older and question naturally arises Who will take care of the old people in the not so distant future? This is also something that humanity has not yet faced. I mean what if at one point old people outnumber those in the workforce? Who will pay the bills?

teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
