If you crammed the entire population of the world into a land area the size of Texas, how much room would each person have?

And I guess so long as you have room enough to stack people like cordwood, you're not overpopulated.

Over 1000 sq ft per person is not stacking them like cordwood. Not with the entire rest of the land mass of the planet available when you gather everyone on the entire planet to Texas for a BBQ.

Ever been to Seoul? I have. People live there pretty well.

It's crowded, yes. But the landmass of the earth is very very large. And most of it is empty for miles. Hundreds and thousands of miles.

I take it you don't like math.

The earth and all that was on it was given to us to husband and steward. If we do that well, terra could support over 100 times the population we have now.

Be fruitful. Multiply.
