I’ve been to Africa. It it not relevant that they are black, but that they are poor.
Your sources do not establish that blacks “have about seven timesy more children” (sic); and the source of your graphs is rather Micky Mouse.
You do not know what “fertility rate” means.
Poor people have more children because they have more children die; because they have no prospect of a pension, health care, or other things that rich people, like us take for granted.
Having more children is the way people insure for the future, so that they do not die alone, and uncared for.
Please take the time to educate yourself and follow these links from people who know what the fuck they are talking about.
On the matter of the horror of the population crisis…
This is worth a good look.
I know why. People in third world countries have less economic opportunities, unemployment is soaring, and men tend to be at a loss as to what to do from day to day. They have a lot of time on their hands, and they usually spend a LOT more time in the sack, making love with their women. If they hd more viable occupations, to occupy their minds, they would not be constantly churning out more and more populations.
Yes, Obe, and you don’t deny the statistics of fertility and mortality.
And please don’t forget: They live according to their tradition; they don’t know and don’t want (!) the typical white, typical Western reasons: “Individualism” and so on. So they live and decide to have children because of their tradition, just as they have always done - that’s all.
When the Western culture was brought to them they at first partly adopted and partly negatetd it, but then they negated it more and more because they noticed the negative side of Western culture. One of their reasons to change their opinion about the Occident was their growing self-confidence. So they didn’t and don’t want to change the fertility.
The economical reasons, you mentioned, are not the only reasons. Behaviour doesn’t have merely economical reasons. Contrariwise the economical reasons should not be underestimated. Nevertheless: economical reasons are not always the only reasons for having children.
1.) Firstly one has to see it from the layer of the evolution because we human beings are involved in evolution.
2-) Secondly we have to see it from the layer of the history because we human beings have been having history since 6000 years.
So we human beings have a (1) evolutionary and a (2) historical development which means that we e.g. have a (1) oral / verbal and a (2) written / recorded cultural tradition.
Economical and - last but not least - techn(olog)ical reasons are important when it comes to explain why human beings have children, but they are not the only reasons; other important reasons are biological and - of course - cultural ones.
…and they can’t figure out that a condom is cheaper than another mouth to feed and if they can’t afford condoms how can they afford “family increases”? Consequences for the creature being born is not even considered, the biggest crime of all. Also, the poor and uneducated in those places are the most prone to believe in religious directives which as a whole negates the use of condoms. The impact of this goes far beyond borders.
Take the trouble to what the links i posted.
If you prefer to stay in ignorance and just respond with your childish prejudices then keep your eyes shut.
That is an uncharacteristically poor post.
Most men in the third world do not own a sack, but are forced to share a pallet with the rest of the family.
If you also followed the links to find out what is really happening you would not make such silly statements.
The reason, why decadent people always think the reasons for having children are always and exclusively economical ones, is the fact that they themselves always think (decadently) the reason for having children would be always and exclusively economical ones.
True up to a point but a river which overflows its banks floods the countryside meaning borders can and are being overrun into other jurisdictions made more vulnerable when there is only a political instead of a geographical dividing line.
Just like an individual vis-a-vis those adjacent, a neighboring country usually does not want to be affected by problems it is not responsible for. But it happens all the time.
You are childish! Very much! You have no idea, especially no idea of fertliity, of mortality, in short: of demographics - as well as of economics and ecology!
