Overpopulation, RSR, and Wanted: More People!
* Nice Places vs. Lousy Places: Real Science Radio hosts Bob Enyart and Fred Williams follow two news stories to their inevitable conclusion: biblical creationism leads to life and anything less leads to death. And in another classic RSR segment, the guys read off a list (just below) of nice places to live, and of lousy places to live, based on population density.
* World Mag & Christian Examiner Reports: In addition to the Huffington Post infanticide article we mentioned on air, after showtime today, we found out that Bob was quoted by the Christian Examiner in their Home Depot article about an employee admonishing the company for promoting homosexuality, and that Enyart was quoted in World magazine's report on the Longmont, Colorado criminal who ripped a baby from her young mother's womb and kidnapped the child.
Is the World Overpopulated?
by Bob Enyart
Six people just survived the sinking of an ocean vessel. They are afloat in a lifeboat with only enough water for five. On board are a doctor, a carpenter, a nurse, a blind elderly woman, a sailor, and a counselor.
Public school students given this scenario over the years were then asked, "Who should be thrown overboard?" Environmentalists designed this exercise to teach public students to solve problems by "eliminating" excess people.
Jacques Cousteau said, "to stabilize the world population we must eliminate 350,000 people per day. It is a horrible thing to say," he admitted, "but it’s just as bad not to say it." This Hitlerian sentiment, published in UNESCO Courier in November 1991, is not rare among envirochondriacs.
Britain’s Prince Philip, president of the Worldwide Fund for Nature, is quoted by The New American’s Robert Lee, Sept. 5, 1994 saying that he would like to be reincarnated as a "killer virus to lower human population levels." Prince HIVlip, perhaps?
How does anyone know there is only enough water for five? Utterly discredited, yet an authority to liberals, is Population Bomb author Paul Ehrlich, who has apparently not had a single prediction come true. America, he declared: would have widespread food rationing by the late 70s, would be "literally dying of thirst" by 1984, and would have 65 million famine deaths in the 80s.
