Interesting article.
In 1980, 33% of women had four or more children. Childlessness was rare, and the childfree movement unheard of. Now, approximately one third of millennial and Gen Z adults say they neither have nor want children. Roughly a quarter of respondents in one survey said that having children is irresponsible because of climate change. Others are unwilling to change their lifestyle or make so immense a commitment. Sterilization rates among young, childless women were already on the rise before the Dobbs ruling, and they have increased dramatically since then.
If the Amish don't get wiped out from some future violence because their pacifism, I could see them breeding more Whites and doing more than most Christians in the US are doing these days. Even some of them don't take up the faith, they to will prosper from the cultural work lessons learned under that system.
ReplyDeleteI'm an agnostic, but never have been impressed with churches overall. They moan about lack of marriage and sin and such nonsense, but do nothing to make marriage a great deal for men legally or train their women to be contrite and agreeable. I know of no wealthy Christian who encourage an early and youthful marriage and help them while this couple is going to school or helping them build a future.
I'm not sure how the churches are supposed to change secular laws about marriage?
