Procreation fading?

[tfox_60]

Considering that overwhelming majority of people end up in hell, I have no desire to procreate.

I don’t want my children cursing me for bringing them to this world.

Well, which is it? Life in this world or the hell after that you want to save them from?

[another day]

Are you sure it was Science Fiction? Because males actually really are the cause of conflict and strife, no offence.

Really? I'd rethink that if I were you. Women are far from all peaceful creatures.

Hell is the result of life in this world, is it not?

The world today makes salvation highly improbable. So I believe it is cruel to bring my children here for ethernal suffering.

Helen of Troy had a penis? No kidding, ya don't say.

Catherine the Great died from being trampled by a horse she had sexual escapades with. What a role model

Salvation is a personal choice, regardless of the circumstances. You could be born into a drunken orgy and grow up in a whore-house. The opportunity for salvation remains. Whether or not someone decides to 'get saved' is based on their personality, not their circumstances.

If it were somehow guaranteed that your child would go straight to hell no matter what, then I could relate to your reasoning. But there is no reason to believe that.

I suspect that 90-95% of the people who decide to get saved, have parents who decided to get saved. 90-95% of those who choose not to get saved, have parents who didnt decide to get saved.

90-95% of the people who decide to get saved...

Hmm, with an ever shrinking original sample size... eventually no-one is saved.

This of course is a lie having historical basis in some pornographic movie.

I must warn you that telling such lies about Christian Monarchs is a terrible heresy of rebellion against people especially blessed by Holy Spirit. May I inform you that:
"To those who deny the divine right of Orthodox kings and all who dare to stir up insurrection and rebellion against them, Anathema thrice!"

I agree fully. Salvation is a personal choice. The only problem is, today only insignificant minority of people make the choice to be saved.

Salvation is very rare indeed even among true Christians.

Can't find the video on youtube now, but it was titled something like "why liberals are dying out".

It showed a middle class couple sitting on a couch in a nice living room discussing how they want to wait a few years to have kids now that they're married.

It cuts to a trailer park with two rednecks yelling at each other. A couple. The woman is holding a baby and pregnant with another.

Cut back to the couple with the caption "5 years later". They explain why they're still waiting.

Cut back to the rednecks. Still in the trailer. Still yelling at each other. Now there are least 3 kids under the age of 5 and the wife is still pregnant.

You get the idea.

I am guessing that was from the movie "Idiocracy",

"Insignificant minority"? Come on. There are hundreds of millions of Christians all over the world. That's a big minority. And as for people making the choice... If you read the Bible, you'll see the story of the farmer sowing seed. And only 1/4th of the seed sown actually produced crop. Jesus made that statistic 2,000 years ago, and it hasn't changed.

Salvation is very rare indeed even among true Christians

What the heck does that mean? Are you watching the counter on the turnstile to hell? Do you measure the tickets of the number of people making it into heaven? How can you possibly know?

Arent the tribes of Israel limited to 144,000 in Revelations? or something like that.
