oh man - I've realized what I've gotten myself into now haha
I'm really glad my internet connection was out last night or the reply I was going to put forth would have made me look like a jerk.
Wully - Seeing as how I haven't yet done the "prescribed research" you suggested, I won't comment about any of the material I'm not yet knowledgeable about... please be patient with me, I'll find the time to do it soon.

It's unfortunate for you, me, and the World that you choose to be ignorant about the required subject knowledge.
I have a little bit of a problem with this, because I think it's inaccurate to say that I am ignorant of the subject knowledge.
Before I even read fully into this thread, I've been completely aware of the issue of global overpopulation and protection of innocent children. (I never disagreed with you on that point.) That's the 'knowledge' you were referring to, right?
Its not that I choose to be ignorant of the 'subject knowledge', but rather I choose to be ignorant of the 'solution provided.'
-I think there may be a difference.
Please forgive me, but I've seen it in myself that my sensitivity to 'words' and the way their used turns me off to a lot of ideas, as you may have already noticed with my first post regarding the opening quote on the VHEMT website.
Seeing it from a cynical point of view, I almost believe that our time for 'changing our ways' or a 'solution to this problem' may have already passed us. We may have already reached a point of no return. If I can paraphrase your previous post " there isn't a feel good answer. "
I only disagree with this by rephrasing to " there isn't a feel good answer
anymore."
Simply enough, I believe that there may be a better solution for "us"(the global population)

One question I would like answered, regardless if its on the website or not - What would happen, or what kind of imbalances, if any at all, would ensue after this movement is completed?
I only ask, because I know you have an intuitive answer to that question.

Before I do read about this movement, I want to know more about the "spokesman" first. I'll send a private message your way with my own personal inquires, but in this post, I just wanted to clear the air about my first post.
I also want to add my apologies for acting with haste and without properly reading over your previous replies.. I now understand your style of writing and what you expect to see in a 'rebuttal'
and I'm trying my best to recreate those expectations.
I think this should suffice for now - like I said earlier in the post, please be patient with me, I will read thoroughly about this movement - as soon as I feel ready to.
