Family planning and slower population growth have a positive impact on nearly all 17 of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals. Planet and population are reaching tipping points we must address.  Here are the goals, and as you read them, you will see about the importance as you think about the world in general:

1. No poverty
2. Zero hunger
3. Good health and well-being
4. Quality education
5. Gender equality
6. Clean water and sanitation
7. Affordable and clean energy
8. Decent work and economic growth
9. Industry, innovation, and infrastructure
10. Reduced inequalities
11. Sustainable cities and communities
12. Responsible consumption and production*
13. Climate action
14. Life below water
15. Life on land
16. Peace, justice, and strong institutions
17. Partnerships for the goals

There will always be poverty, poor education, hunger, poor industry and infrastructure and/or wages, and  what's that consumption and production mean? Rationing of food and what you are allowed to buy?  As for the others, they are good thoughts and that's all they are--thoughts and wishful thinking. Greed controls the world. Government already controls so many items on your list while lawmakers are above whatever law is made.

What scares me is how much this sounds like something out of a horror/sci-fi movie and more like total control of the people, what we eat, where we live, approval of which industries can operate, and using China's birth control to achieve your wish list.  That is not a free world.

Has anyone noticed how some people can take two words out of your post and just rip on you mercilessly without considering the context? Just pick out the words they don't like and then make some sort of religious statement that makes them feel better than everyone else.  :angel11:

I think it would be nice if when you read posts, read them in their entirety and get the whole picture first. Then calmly state your own point of view, if different. Or heavenly days, perhaps agree with them if you agree with the whole post.

Why is there so much dissension, for dissension's sake, on this forum. It used to be quite fun to read remarks but it's become a battlefield of sorts for some. When did this become a forum for protests against someone's point of view rather than insightful conversations?  :-\

All i did was ask you explain balance out.Its like you are saying God intended man to die.

He didnt and i used the bible to back that up.I find it hard to believe you read it and dont have a clue.

Jesus scolded others that warped the truth too.

If you left balance out your post would have made sense.

Rip you apart?Where???I explained using the  bible.Rip apart those that will murder.Wake up.

I remind you man wasnt put on earth to die and I think a loving Creator could solve a population problem if ever it came about instead of abortions etc.......as well as fix ALL the other problems on earth when SOME of us would prefer to "Let your kingdom come on earth..........and be freed from this manmade/Satanic rule.

The main theme of the bible is Gods kingdom that he has appointed his son Jesus as king to rule...NOT Trump or mankind!!To bring peace,security and life to ALL that will accept His rule and LOVE him and accept the ransom sacrifice Jesus made to for us NOT to die.

https://www.jw.org/en/library/magazines/watchtower-no3-2019-sep-oct/why-we-grow-old-die/

You better examine your religeon.

I remind you God warned A&E if they disobeyed they would die.If he wanted them to die,why even bother warning them?Its like it would have been his plan.But it WASNT!!!

You think hes sending Jesus to die an excruciating death as a ransom if Gods plan was for man to die??

BTW i remind you,i read your whole post.You shoulda left "balance out"OUT!!That made NO sense to defend not supporting over-population and balancing out when man wasnt put here to die to start.

So in summary to SIMPLIFY for you,God didnt create man to die so the earth would become over-populated as you said in "balance out".

Yes i was guilty taking those 2 words and correcting you using the bible.I know where U stand on it already before i did....but as i have said many times......others read this too.

The fact you hope to go to heaven when you die allows me to know how U think.

Using bible again.....dust doesnt go to heaven or is life as God reminded Adam and Lazarus spoke of no heavenly bliss or hellfire after Jesus resurrected him.Jesus said he was asleep.

Yes you are right.As long as Satan and man are in control there will always be misery.

Now ask yourself a question if you think a loving Creator exists.Is he responsible for this and if he isnt will he act and fix it?

The bible answers if UR interested and if NOT enjoy your 80/90 yrs and as the bible says,"Let us eat drink and be merry,for tomorrow we die.

Mankind is 6000 yrs old.How much more time do U need before you realize mankind and Satan cant rule successfully?

Did U ever read a history book?

In a world full of millionaires and many in poverty,does anyone in their mind think the Creator wanted this?

I believe we should be allowed to state our opinions on the post without fear of being chastised or maligned.

Shouldn't it be a form open to all opinions, one's own POV; no matter how far out into outer space they are considered by others.

There's already too much hate and dissension in this world. Let's lighten up and have fun and discuss issues without malice.  :highfive: Or if it really makes you feel better, go ahead and be mean. Give it your best shot. ::)

You are a stickler for those that cant spell.

I am a stickler for bible truths.

BTW i am not mean.You cant handle someone speaking bible truths with authority.

I dont have a problem with those that disagree with bible truths.The bible actually says the road is broad and spacious to destruction and narrow for those finding life.So i expect your kind of behavior and others.

A slave isnt higher then his master.If they did what they did to Jesus,those supporting him should also expect it.

You ask the question when others put down Trump why?I have answered in many posts how i feel about him,but i dont vote and also know whoever is president wont get it done either......so remain neutral.

But from a perspective whats going on in this country the last 6 months,i think its pretty foolish to hear Trump spouting MAGA!!!LOL!!

And yet i know the next president whoever that is will also have his hands full cos the bible backs up we are in the last days of this system and long ago it said "Man has dominated himself to his own injury."

It doesnt belong to man to govern himself and succeed says the bible.6000 yrs of his rule proves that.....of course with a little help from Satan.

I remember when I first started posting in these forums and even saying how helpful people were and how it was fun to post in here.  Then the attacks started when someone did not agree with what I said or how I believe.  Seems like now that is about all it is.  If you will notice there is not much activity in the forums lately.

FC members,CG created over 130 posts from Aug to Sept.Please note her last line RE activity in the forum.LOL!!

I remember yrs ago how there were a few creeps that ruined this forum.They are gone.It has been much better.If you take away CGs controversial BS it will be even better.

Dont ya just love it when others say everyone is entitled to their own views or opinions?Then when someone disagrees with theirs they wanna know why...LOL!

So here is how they think.....as long as Hitler,Bin Laden,Manson thought what they were doing was OK dont question them....LOL!!!

They Also remind me of Jesus enemies who told Jesus if he was Gods son to save himself after before that he proved beyond a doubt he was Gods son.

I really wish others that dont agree with what i have to say here either ignore me or put me on ignore.I have been on here for a yr...have 700 posts and been thanked 308 Xs,I feel very good contributing to many.

Then CG gives the line,i dont shove my beliefs on anyone.Thats actually good if she doesnt share her BS with anybody.

All i know is Jesus taught his followers to go preach the truth RE God and his kingdom and the JWs are doing that in 240 lands.Millions of hrs......freeeeeee.

Bible says stones would cry out if they had to declare the truth.

Family planning and slower population growth have a positive impact on nearly all 17 of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals. Planet and population are reaching tipping points we must address.  Here are the goals, and as you read them, you will see about the importance as you think about the world in general:

1. No poverty
2. Zero hunger
3. Good health and well-being
4. Quality education
5. Gender equality
6. Clean water and sanitation
7. Affordable and clean energy
8. Decent work and economic growth
9. Industry, innovation, and infrastructure
10. Reduced inequalities
11. Sustainable cities and communities
12. Responsible consumption and production*
13. Climate action
14. Life below water
15. Life on land
16. Peace, justice, and strong institutions
17. Partnerships for the goals
The league of Nations,that became the UN after the WWs couldnt create world peace.

Need we say more?

“Be Fruitful, Multiply, Fill the Earth”

TO THE first human pair, Adam and Eve, God stated, “Be fruitful, multiply, fill the earth, and subdue it; have dominion over the fish of the sea, the birds of the air, the domestic animals, and all the living things that crawl on the earth!” (Gen. 1:28, AT) That this is God’s purpose regarding the earth is also made clear at Isaiah 45:18, where we are told that God formed the earth to be inhabited.

Since that is God’s purpose regarding the earth, it will be accomplished, for he further states: “I have spoken it, I will also bring it to pass; I have purposed it, I will also do it.”—Isa. 46:11.

Cant be any clearer what God intended the human race to do when he created them.

Of course Satan and A&E threw a monkey wrench in it....but as the bible says his plan will still be fulfilled and i dont think God is too worried about over-population.
