You sure weren't thinking when you strung that one together were you! What a disappointment when I was about to start taking you quite seriously over all your philosophizing banter with Meleagar.
Amusing in that it reflects on Meleagar's argument as well as yours in that Meleagar's most serious audience for his nonsense turns out to be not serious at all! Let me help you to rethink that one: Because of human innovation the earth has come to be capable of supporting over 6 billion human beings and will become capable of supporting even more through future innovations. Albeit, not in the style to which we are both accustomed.
