The Need to Breed

[Cinjin]

If we're going to keep breathing....we ought to be able to come up with a reason. Look, Cin, these quotes come from people with agendas to pursue ... [/quote}

What agenda? Keeping a balance between humans, plants, animals, and the earth itself? Yeah, I hope so. I'm all for that agenda.

(and that's fine, I have my own - but it bears mentioning), I question the assumptions used to reach the conclusions, perhaps you should start fleshing those assumptions out for me, handle my objections. You aren't bringing me any eye opening info, this stuff hasn't completely escaped my radar leaving me bewildered as to how we ended up where we are.

What objections have you handed me to deal with? We've already concluded our debate regarding forced population control. I'm not beating that horse. I am merely refuting your statement that quote, "human population is not a factor."

It very clearly is a factor, and that alone is what those articles are posted for. You (and a few others) seem to get so caught up in the amount of food available for future human use, when that is just one of the lesser issues. I'm only refuting ONE of your statements. It is painfully clear that human population is very much a factor in the welfare and balance of life on this planet.

Let me dumb it down (not that you require that, but humor me). Human population, not a factor right? So 100 thousand people or 10 billion people ... doesn't matter, because it's not a factor?

Come on man, why are you trying to sell me that?
