Occasionally when reading back over your comments, I find myself getting all schmaltzy and shit, and feeling the need to reach out and give everybody a big group hug. I've never learned the trick of swallowing my cynicism whole, and often find myself moved by the passion I sense behind your missives. It resonates with my own. Hang in there, my friends, and spread the message each in your own way. Different ears respond to different voices, and each of us has something relevant to say on the matter. Thank you for your efforts born out of empathy, and an understanding of the stakes.
So, there you go.

Thanks for providing us this place to talk openly about that most taboo of subjects...
My pleasure!
I have read oveer 90% of this blog and the first thing that comes to my mind is that the blog writer's heart is in the right place. You care. Not everyone does. As for antinatalism, I would urge anyone who is considering the decision whether or not to have children to put the child's interests above their own. This is the starting point of appreciating the antinatalist argument. To paraphrase Sydney Carton's immortal final words:
(For the unborn children of this world) It is a far, far better rest that they know than they will ever know on Earth.
