Quote "One other concern - overpopulation. It is almost mandated that some of us die so make room for the young. Even if the young are less than plentiful - do not forget those civilizations and societies who are making huge numbers of their own."

Overpopulation does not exist. There is plenty of room around the world for people to live. This is a liberal strawman.

"Overpopulation does not exist..."

Would you accept that populations need to spread out then?
There is much room on earth - however much of it is uninhabitable by mankind as live now unless full development of technology is achieved by all of the populations. Even on land which is habitable...

...clustering leads to disease, starvation and land devastation....For example the continent of Africa has immense natural resources and expanse of land, but the people there cannot seem to exist above poverty unless there has been outside influence. There is room for all yes but can their population be sustained even in favorable conditions?

Not certain what you are saying here - and if I am wrong I would like to know your thoughts. Please don't label me as espousing liberal mantra. Thanks.
