    That’s been Catholicism’s playbook since day one. There’s a reason they’re so against any kind of sex that doesn’t lead to procreation.

    Course, it also used to be rooted in the fact that medicine was trash for a long time, and a lot of kids died, so you’d want to have as many as you could to give some a shot at living a full life. But that’s not the case anymore, so yeah, the only reasons to have as many kids as possible is as you say, to outnumber the sane people, and to keep the working class populated, so we inch closer and closer to Idiocracy becoming reality every day.

    But hey, look at those shareholder’s profits!

      Well, that and replacement theory.

      They think it’s up to them to keep the skin as white as possible.

        I don’t know why. I’m about as pale as you can get, and it is by far the WEAKEST of skin colors. We literally cannot go out in the sun without protection.

        Sure, everyone should wear sunscreen, but I can get burnt walking out to the mailbox!

          Ah. Sounds like you have fine genes my friend. The best genes.

          Have you considered endless breeding?

          Not only is it a lot of fun, but you can pass on those great genes you got there.

          For real though, I have a red headed daughter and one that should have been a redhead. She got everything but the hair. The freckles, the pale blue eyes. A beam of light comes through the window and she starts smoking. Someone turns on a 100W lightbulb and she blisters. I get what you’re saying.
