In an overcrowded world
The
rationale behind dating and falling in love is to find a suitable partner to
bond with so as to have and raise children and thereby perpetuate our species.
But in case you
haven’t noticed, our global population is approaching 7 billion and about half
of that number don’t have enough to eat. We are the only species on this
planet that has such a capable mind and the ability to take control of our
lives in such a way that other species cannot.
So many people think
it is important to have a family that is somehow independent of the global
family of humanity. It is a fact that we have a genetic predisposition to want
to reproduce even though there is no longer any need.
Some scientists are
saying that all life on earth could come to a crashing halt in the next
hundred years because of corruption, pollution, global warming and all the
conflict going on. Global warming and corruption are undoubtedly going to be
the biggest killers. The corruption I speak of is the acquisition and control
of vast areas of land and the indiscriminate use of toxic chemicals which is
currently the primary cause of migration out of Africa.
We love kids so much
that there are organisations doing their utmost to prevent women having
abortions even though when those unworn babies are born, they will be
malnourished and a burden on society. As they grow up they may well go on to
become criminals because they were not wanted.
Having sex is a
natural and healthy activity, but bringing unwanted children into an
overcrowded world is unhealthy and will actually hasten the downfall not only
of our own species, but all other species on this planet and as we know, we’re
causing the extinction of other species almost on a daily basis.
We will need to have
some children, therefore it is logical to have children who are wanted and
above all healthy. In ancient times while Europeans were still surviving
through hunting and gathering, the civilisation of India had developed what is
known as the gotra system.
The Indians had an
understanding of genetics and their system or arranged marriages put men and
women together who were energetically compatible and biologically healthy.
This is about consciously ensuring that our children and indeed our actual
population is healthy and strong.
Europeans today
refer to this as eugenics or selective breeding. Farmers have been doing this
with their livestock for thousands of years because it is the most sensible
way to achieve predictable and sustainable results. In farming this also
produced a good economic return whereas today, people are having babies to
meet their emotional needs.
Today so many people
are having babies and cheating those children as an extension of their own
personality and forcing them to conform. It has been in the news that about
three quarters of all the children in the USA are on some form of medication
to either control their behaviour or manage their diseases.
We continue to bring
millions of children whose health was compromised by the parents ill-health
into the world and somehow expecting the world to function. This is proving to
be a nightmare at social, ecological and economic levels and is clearly
unsustainable.
If you and your
partner are healthy enough that you do not use any medications, if you are the
sort of person who can survive in this insane world without propagating
insanity then you are the sort of person fit to have children.
But if your life is
a mess and you cannot survive without medication then having children is only
going to compound all your problems.
