Hi Paul,
Interesting thread! By what standard should we sterilize to move in the direction of a sustainable planet?
If the 5% of the world's population that lives in this country consumes 20% of the resources, should we be mandated to reduce our population to 1/4 its current size so our consumption is equalized with the rest of the world?
Also, you say that natural selection results in survival of the fittest. How "fit" are we in view of the following charge:
"You will see, you will measure, you will come to know with
certainty that your nation may be a materially and technologically
advanced, but morally, ethically, socially, familially, and
individually, very retarded."
