Okay great.

Thanks for the response. It’s been interesting to see other people’s take on the commercial.

“Father of 7. 9th grandchild due in December.”

I’ve got four grandkids out in California. Don’t see them much, living in Texas, and the brood here are all still in the nest.

I don’t expect my first Texas grandkids for years to come. Hopefully I’ll be retired by then, and will have the leisure to spend real time with them.

Save us from what, you ask? The planet, he tells a group to students at James Madison University, will soon be "largely uninhabitable for humans," and it's "gonna be post-apocalyptic movie time." According to NPR, these intellectual nuggets of wisdom left students speechless.

I wonder if anyone has ever thought to ask these folks if they believe in evolution and if they do, then why not just believe that life on this planet will evolve to adapt to whatever the climate changes to.

Thanks for getting us back on track. The various families of which I am a member have been doing family reunions for years. I look at those from the 60s and 70s and they are dominated by kids. Fast forward to the 90s and it is about 50-50. Now, the kids are a minority. And most of my family are Christian, conservative and great at reproducing. We had three in less than four years. We would have kept going if my wife's health had permitted.

Now that the kids are gone and we have only grandkids to look forward to growing in number, we can laugh about it and say the joys we had raising the kids was even better with the joys we had in implanting them.

Wow - 120 Grandchildren and Greatgrandchildren - that’s quite a legacy. You deserve a medal - especially if they are conservatives!

Genesis 1:28
And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth.

God tells us to procreate, environmentalists tell us not to.

Who knows best? Environmentalists told us decades ago that the earth would be completely incapable of supporting MUCH less than the population is now, and it seems clear to me its capacity has barely been approached. Even as I type the US GOVT is buying up surplus cheese!

I’ll take God’s word over any ones whose advice is contrary.

I had been giving him a tough time based on the first commercial I saw him in. It really rubbed me the wrong way.

Others chimed in to say that wasn’t the full story on him.

I’m not scolding you about it — not at all. Just thought you might find it interesting. I’ve watched some of the shows online and enjoyed them.

The goal of civilization is, at it's core, the protection of children and pregnant women.

If it goes in any other direction it dies.

"r people that fall for the lies of feminism and global warming/climate change or whatever they’re calling it this month.

abortion industry is run by mostly men...

too many men have fallen for the playboy philosophy and think every woman has to be a Barbie doll and won't marry otherwise...

plus their porn addictions leave little time for actual children...

and we wonder why so many men have to have Viagra for their little heads to work...

It's so true. May God hear our prayers of repentance for the marxism/feminism that has been let loose in our halls of power and heal our land.
