Note that my point—and I think it went right by you—is that one wonders why anyone would want to bring a new life into this world when it appears that the social fabric of this nation is rapidly disintegrating. Opportunities for social advancement seem to me to be dramatically falling (check the unemployment numbers that come out every month).
Racial relations have probably never been worse and it looks like they are going to get much, much worse.
And they are other things that a writer could turn into an editorial column.
Yeah, I question why someone would want to bring some poor, unsuspecting soul into this maelstrom. Doing so seems to me to be a cruel act.
Leftists say the same thing. "It's cruel to being a child into a world with racism, Globa Warming, nuclear weapons, and awful religious people with guns, where a woman's right to choose is constantly under threat." However, for most of them, the world isn't so cruel that they think it can go on without themselves, so we can reasonably conclude they're full of piffle.
I got your point.
I think you ought to mind your own business when it comes to a good man and a good family.
How on earth do you suppose the “social fabric” of this country will start to mend without God-fearing, America-loving parents raising up their children in it?
What will you recommend next? That people who think tough times are a’coming (and that includes people like you AND me, by the way) ought to start advocating abortion?
‘Cause we sure don’t want to bring any poor unsuspecting souls into this maelstrom, right?
