> Maybe those who believe they are bringing souls into the world, rather than bags of meat and water, tend to have a more positive outlook on having children?

I think it is more likely that following religions where you can only have sex in the context of attempted procreation leads to more children.

The difference with revelation is that climate change is real. It is happening and will continue to happen.

How is not having kids a moral weakness?

[4asnarkycomment → thatguy0900]

If you read my comment, I didn't say not having kids itself is a moral weakness. I said that moral weakness leads to a lack of desire to reproduce.

I don't see how that follows, either,to be honest. There is no shortage of immoral parents

You're thinking in odd absolutes. I would call strawman but I think you're doing it in good faith anyways

[thatguy0900 → 4asnarkycomment]

You are asserting that moral weakness leads to a lack of children, with no exanation. I said that I don't see how that follows, and plenty of morally weak people have children. I don't see how I'm attacking a strawman by giving a counter example, you've given no reasoning for your statement

How is it not? The matter is obviously a personal choice and there are certainly exceptions, but in my opinion raising the next generation is the most important thing one can do, and willfully ignoring it is selfish.
