ROME — Pope Francis lamented the West’s continued demographic decline, insisting on Friday that fewer children signals a lack of hope in the future.

Countering “outdated” myths of dangerous overpopulation, the pontiff contended that far from being a problem, human beings are the solution to the world’s difficulties.

Without naming names, the pope seemingly referred to characters like Stanford biologist Paul Ehrlich, who penned the 1968 doomsday bestseller The Population Bomb, which sparked hysteria over the future of the world and the earth’s ability to sustain human life.

He is also a defender of pedos and priests who violate their oath to Gawd. He is a horror of a human being.

Yep. Kind of like Elon Musk.

That’s institutional with the Catholic church.

Does he secretly wish the Catholic Church allowed abortion?

He has said that many in the Church devote too much attention to the subject of abortion. I cannot see into his heart but some people in the Church seem to be embarrassed by those they consider to be "unsophisticated" on various subjects -- traditions, "counting rosaries" and such.

In his address, Francis also called for greater social and government action to create an economic and cultural environment where married couples feel more free to have children.

Socialism kills the birth rate everywhere it's tried. The correlation is 100%. Social programs transfer the natural return on investment for raising children from the parents to government. People respond to incentives. Give parents the social security deductions from their children's paychecks and the incentive returns.
