So you want your brothers and sisters to die in large numbers through famine, pestilence and war? Or have you just failed to write clearly enough to convey what you really mean?
I would rather my brothers and sisters, the whole human race, would stop killing each other unnecessarily. But if we are all just organisms, nothing more, then why would abortion and birth control be any better for controlling population than war, pestilence and famine? If we are in effect nothing more than so many bacteria in a petrie dish called Earth, what possible difference could it make which method is used for "controlling" the growth of the culture? In fact, when you consider how much disgusting and unnecessary slaughter, poverty and starvation there is. Perhaps the best thing to do would be to throw the petrie dish into an autoclave and have done with the bacterial culture within it. Nothing at all is better than what has been going on. John W.
