Thank you Stuart for the correction; I was trying to come up with Sanger's first name from memory....didn't succeed.

And thanks, Carson, for the correction; I was trying to come up with the words for believers in God, as opposed to atheists and those who believe in God but hate Him (there are many on those commentaries --on those sites all you have to say is "pro-life" and the hatred and blasphemy jump out.)

Ah. I guess my question should have been more specific, i.e. US and UN started a depopulation war? Perhaps I took the rhetoric too literally, but I see what you are meaning.

Population growth has already stabilized around the world. Contrary to the mainstream consensus, we aren't at 7 billion, and probably never will reach it.
