Surprisingly the counterview evoked more number of comments at Rebecca's blog. I couldn’t agree more with every single word you posted. In my opinion we human have taken the process of reproduction for granted. We may not plant a single sapling all through our lifetime but we shall not refrain from producing a whole new generation to exploit every natural resource we couldn’t in our own lifetime. Perhaps for every species but human on this planet there is some eco mechanism in place to maintain the critical balance with the nature. And the One – Orthodox God or Unorthodox God – whoever designed this entire scheme of the Universe has endowed human with the power of discretion to make choices so that this gem of One’s creation otherwise known as Earth remain intact for ages if not for eternity. <BR/><BR/>Now we cannot cement the ozone hole over the poles and make it look like it used to when the earth was still virgin and there were not single oil well drilled. Or we cannot put the ice cap back on the glaciers and the beautiful lush green forest carpet on the mountains unless we curtail ever increasing and encroaching human population. Controlling human population may appear as an option today but soon it will be imperative for all including the theist and atheist, to put their act together or perish.<BR/><BR/>Am not yet married but I think I have already made my mind not to encase my future kid inside the consumerist human body. I would rather happy to see my kid growing up in heaven and watching how time ticks from up there sitting along side the Creator than drinking DDT enriched milk, breathing more Lead fumes less oxygen and adding strain on the environment down here on the Earth.<BR/><BR/>Well, my kid seems having a jolly good time up there...lee XYhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12956183676229914311noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30314848.post-14414417639221821532007-10-17T20:48:00.000-07:002007-10-17T20:48:00.000-07:00Ha. This is one of the most interesting posts I've...Ha. This is one of the most interesting posts I've read in a long time. Because I'm over 30 and I'm married, for some reason people think it's my "duty" to have children, which I find terribly offensive. I absolutely cannot WAIT to provide this argument as a reason for not having kids. So...thanks!<BR/><BR/>Also, welcome to Etsy...I'm going to check out your store now. I'm still building mine and trying to document improvements in my blog, but I've been traveling on assignment for work so I'm behind.<BR/><BR/>Good luck!Simply Wired Custom Jewelryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15650179180324828061noreply@blogger.com
