Overpopulation Town Criers - Akin to Murderers

The world's youngest religion has taken the planet by storm.  That religion is called radical environmentalism.

This religion is one that values earth over life, plant-life over breath, animal over human.  It is the antithesis of Judaism.

Judaism teaches that there are levels in Creation:

1) דומם - inatimate objects
2) צומח - vegetation
3) חי - animal life
4) מדבר - speaking life (humans)
etc.

The purpose of each of these levels is to serve the next level.  This is why the soil is there to allow trees, grass, and vegetation to grow.  This is why herbivores consume leaves and grass.  This is why Hashem allowed No'ah and his descendants to eat meat.

Radical environmentalists believe the exact opposite.  "Hail the earth, almighty god!" they proclaim.  This is pure Avoda Zara.

But it's even worse than that.

Today's Guardian tells us that the best way to fight climate change is to have fewer children.  Because, of course, the almighty earth takes precedence over people.

And last week, the Tribune had an article about people distributing a (forbidden) type of birth control to people to show the importance of decreased human population in order to lessen the "strain on natural resources and the potential destruction of animals' habitats".

This religion tells us to murder potential humans to save the planet.  This is pure Shefichut Damim (and probably Giluy Arayot to boot).  There may be valid reasons for birth control if sanctioned by a competent rabbi, but saving the planet sure ain't one of them.

Hashem commanded us to populate the earth and have dominion over the animals in the same verse:

כח  וַיְבָרֶךְ אֹתָם, אֱלֹהִים, וַיֹּאמֶר לָהֶם אֱלֹהִים פְּרוּ וּרְבוּ וּמִלְאוּ אֶת-הָאָרֶץ, וְכִבְשֻׁהָ; וּרְדוּ בִּדְגַת הַיָּם, וּבְעוֹף הַשָּׁמַיִם, וּבְכָל-חַיָּה, הָרֹמֶשֶׂת עַל-הָאָרֶץ.28 And God blessed them; and God said unto them: 'Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it; and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that creepeth upon the earth.'

Also, a verse in Yeshaya that is often quoted by Haza"l comes to mind:
יח  כִּי כֹה אָמַר-יְהוָה בּוֹרֵא הַשָּׁמַיִם הוּא הָאֱלֹהִים, יֹצֵר הָאָרֶץ וְעֹשָׂהּ הוּא כוֹנְנָהּ--לֹא-תֹהוּ בְרָאָהּ, לָשֶׁבֶת יְצָרָהּ; אֲנִי יְהוָה, וְאֵין עוֹד.18 For thus saith the LORD that created the heavens, He is God; that formed the earth and made it, He established it, He created it not a waste, He formed it to be inhabited: I am the LORD, and there is none else.

The world was made to be populated by humans, pure and simple.

This is not to say that we should not be kind to the earth.  We should be.  But when those who make it a religion assign it higher priority than the Mitzvah of having children, you know that its proponents have lost their way.

We must heed those verses above and not let this religion creep into Judaism.

This has been going on for some time but is now coming to its climax, all part of a global agenda to depopulate the world and to eradicate the belief in G-D. In the meantime, they are chemtrailing with dangerous metals coming down and so many different ways of corrupting the earth. As Chazal tells that at keitz hayamim we will have the Erev Rav in control, in partnership with Esav & Yishmael. The big problem is that most Yehudim know nothing of Torah nor have any common sense together with a generation of dumb downed idiots who believe the political correctness, climate??? changes which is all man made, etc., etc. This is all to control. Moshiach must come as soon as possible!

Approximately 7.5 billion is world population in 2017. Are you saying the world is underpopulated, and that humankind as a whole has still got a long way to go to fulfil the 'increase and multiply' precept?

The world is as Hashem willed it. Our job is to continue to populate it no matter how many people it already has.

thanks Yaak, I never thought about it that way. You're right of course.

Read elsewhere of the planet being capable of holding at least double the current world population with others even claiming it can hold a maximum of 36 billion.

While many talk of a global agenda to depopulate the world, it interesting that the demand is only placed on developed 1st / 2nd world countries where birthrates are already declining (with declining birthrates even being noted among the Yishmaelim despite not being directly targeted by the global depopulation agenda but rather intended by default via the evil elite to be one of the main beneficiaries) instead of parts of the 3rd world that simply cannot cope with rising overpopulation, resulting in waves of people flooding into the West and the rest of the developed world.

Seems it is very difficult finding a balance between underpopulation and overpopulation when guiding society, generally speaking prosperity absent of male authority over time seems to lead to population decline (even with the absence of technology) along the lines of the mouse utopia experiment whereas harsh unstable poverty-ridden dog-eat-dog parts of the world generally seems to lead to overpopulation.

Question is that if one's enemies subscribe and actually practice this nonsense to one's long term benefit (since they have no faith in the future to desire reproducing anyway), should one really stop them from committing civilisational suicide? For one thing logic and reason have left them long ago so any attempt to stop them would be in vain and dangerous (additionally arguing with them on an emotional level would be a long shot), it is also said that who Hashem wishes to destroy he first makes mad.

Agree on being considerate of the Earth instead of outright worshipping it at the expense of humanity, essentially basic conservation as opposed to dogmatic anti-Human environmentalism.

Yaak, I am glad you posted this info. Back in January of 2016, I also brought this up in a post. Bill Gates is talking about depopulation. I am in the middle of a community assessment and the Census Bureau has their 5 year estimated populations and in the zip codes that I was writing about had decreases in the population! here is my post in Jan of 2016

Watch video of Bill Gate's declaring the use of vaccines needed to depopulate the planet. He is a nut: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4vzFeiKH1jQ

If the rest of the world were to consume at the rate that the United States does, it would take four Earth size planets to sustain. Unfortunately a disproportionate percentage of the worlds resources is controlled by a relatively small percentage of the population.

Anonymous, that's not something we need to worry about. We do what we're supposed to do and Hashem will take care of the rest. We don't apply אין סומכין על הנס if the alternative means the entire world negating a Torah precept.

To the last Anonymous, any human being who thinks, no matter his position in life and his wealth, that he and his cohorts have the right to determine how many people there should be in the world and who should live and who should be discarded, is playing G-D, and that is not normal thinking but evil. H' Alone rules - He gives life and is the Creator of Everything and everything is only in His Control and it is not for us to worry if there is enough for everyone!
Yaak said it best.

Great post, very important points!

In modernized countries, they are suffering much more from extremely low non-replenishing birthrates, which will ruin the societies of Europe by around 2040, if not before. Yet they keep screaming about overpopulation.

You are so right that radical environmentalism is a religion! They even call the planet Gaia and engage in other such occult-based nonsense.

In Italy they made into law that all people MUST be vaccinated, and if a parent doesn't let his child(ren) then they will remove them from their parents. There are protests going on now. It is all part of depopulation strategy, along with other measures. Remember the Eugenics lady? It is still going on. We don't have to worry about this because HaShem will handle it for us. Population will be culled of the wicked, leaving the deserving Jews, noahides and righteous gentiles. It's part of the plan of HaShem following the redemption. We Jews have to "deserve" to be saved.
