warning

Warning: beware of organizations or individuals who believe that fighting poverty includes “population control.” They think, wrongly, that if there were LESS people, there would be MORE food & other resources available for people. They are WRONG. With more people, we have more individuals to help create & sustain infrastructures that can & will alleviate poverty, assist the disabled & elderly, & create good communities. Those in favor of so-called “population control” usually also support abortion & maybe even assisted suicide or other forms of euthanasia . It’s a slippery slope that is the EXACT OPPOSITE of God’s intention for the world.

RESEARCHERS DISCOVER WHAT WE ALREADY KNEW AS CHRISTIANS: "The World Is Not As Hungry As You Might Think"

Increasing population is not correlated w/ greater poverty & hunger levels! Christians know this becausw we know God will provide.

HOWEVER(due to man-made problems):
"...
Hunger levels are labeled "alarming" in the Central
African Republic, Chad, Zambia, Timor-Leste, Sierra
Leone, Haiti, Madagascar and Afghanistan. Owing to
conflict, some countries have gotten nowhere or
grown worse in the past 25 years, including
Burundi, Comoros, Iraq and Sudan. An HIV/AIDS
epidemic crippled Swaziland, bringing nourishment
levels down with it..."
