If these babies are themselves conceptualy white, or will be, as we have every expectation, in what fantasy of white, do whites need to have more babies?
You repeatedly indicated that this was a position you genuinely held. Was this not true? Not even the concept of white is being replaced in society. Many (and in the us, a very large many) non whites already consider themselves to be white with no regard to what you think of them, as an individual - or as a representative of some smaller subset of society.
As we always have. If whiteness is asserted rather than any biological reality, as you now appear to be suggesting and as I would agree - are the birth rates of one genetic community or another even relevant to the number of whites in the world at a given time? Why would having more or less babies alter the number of whites if the number of whites is unrelated to the status of a childs race in reality, if there is such a reality?

That child will be more likely to have brown skin than pale skin.
Wrong again. Just profoundly, absurdly wrong. Neither self identification nor societal perception rest on an underlying biological reality, and the color of our skin and any other identifying moniker have everything to do with our local genetics rather than any national (let alone global) race. How many of these things would you have to be wrong about before it altered some other opinion or predilection based on the belief that you were in possession of facts?
I'll have to do some research into this, and if I'm wrong and the census projections are wrong, then great. There's nothing I like more than to be proven wrong, because then I gain more knowledge and have a better understanding of the world.
