Pastor Heneghan of Gospel Community Church sees the issue of population growth in more biblical terms, specifically those taken from Genesis and Revelation. “Some people think that what I’m doing–having eleven children–is wrong. I don’t really get into that much. The Bible says ‘be fruitful and multiply.’ That’s my belief system. They don’t believe in God, so they think we have to conserve what we have. But in my belief system, He’s going to give us a new earth.” Overpopulation isn’t a problem in a universe where God promises a clean global slate.
From The Nation, about a large and fast-growing sect (naturally!), Quiverfull, that believes “God” should entirely control how many children a woman has, and her husband control everything she does.
… and that the “whites” must work to “outbreed” the blacks.
Lovely.
