well, it is true enough that the planet, or rather, our species
are breeding ourselves out of our planet.
But then, you excusing yourself from the gene pool is not going
to stop other from breeding ... infact, your place in the gene pool
might just be filled up by people who would not, or do not have the
cognitive capacity to think and reason that way ....
all the pity isn't it ? ..... I think we'll be more farked that
way ....
if people are going to breed anyways .... then I think it's the
duty of the smarter ones to breed more, whether it's for the
country, for the species, or for the planet. ..... if it comes down
to us humans having to colonize the stars, we'd be needing a lot of
rocket scientists, literally ..... then elevating the gene pool
becomes more important ..... we can't have someone with the
cognitive horse power of a lawn mower building spaceships after
all, eh ?
