Gilder argues that the contraceptive mentality will lead inevitably to the suicide of a civilization.
I appreciate the recommendation, thank you :-)
I think the premise as you articulate it is demonstrably sound, and it’s something that the West in particular needs to be far more mindful of, particularly considering the threat of Islam.
Muslims are breeding like rabbits while so many in the West are content with preventing pregnancies or in murdering unborn children outright. Our numbers diminish while the muslim hordes continue to grow. Pat Buchanan wrote about that in “Death of the West” and Mark Steyn touched on that theme in at least a couple of his books. It’s a huge problem that we need to address immediately or we risk losing everything.
