"In the old days when I was in college 1970 the lefties preached the "end of the world" by way of environmentalism. The book "The Population Bomb" was required reading in about 5 of my classes. If you even hinted that the earth maybe able to handle more than 2 billion people you were ejected from class."

I remember reading that in college in the 70's! Weren't we supposed to run out of food and be killing each other off by the 90's? Funny how they wanted western culture to limit family size but they never criticize 3rd-world nations for too many kids. As for the future, it will be a little like the Time Machine story, except the split into two cultures will be men doing all the physical work and women running everything (sorta like my house now).

India did this BUT as you suggest the Muslims there didn't and now they are the fastesrt growing segment of the population.

I have read that Denmark will have a Muslim majority in 2040. I call it death by Political Correctness.

IIRC, back in the '70s we were being warned by the left that we were headed into a second "ice age" because of all the freon escaping into the air...
