[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]People don’t have a very good understanding of history, do they? Do you really think things are so much worse now than they’ve been at many, many previous points in history? The plague wiped out a third of Europe. The 1918 flu epidemic was catastrophic. Rome fell, the Holocaust happened, the Great Depression, wars, famine, discord. It’s all happened before, and it will happen again. Yet, people always kept having kids & living their lives. 
So much drama on this thread. ,  [/quote]

Yes, and those things were pretty awful for the people who lived through them, and many people died.  You may not care if your kids and grandkids have to live through (or die in) the equivalent of the Black Death or the Spanish flu or whatever, but some of us do.  [/quote]

Yes, but that's idiotic to say any joy they may have in life before or aside from trials and tribulation isn't worth it...really, by that logic you shouldn't have kids because giving birth tends to be painful.  :roll: Or seriously, ask any parent if they regret not aborting their child because of special needs or illness. Or perhaps ask that individual if they would have rather never existed?

Well, that's a giant non sequitur.  [/quote]
