Stoners Thoughts No 3.

There are a lot of scare stories out there about the ultimate apocolypse of the world being brought about though war, religion, global warming etc. People tend to buy in based on their preferred flavour of dogma. But what if the end of the world doesnt so much come about as a bang, but rather a whimper?

Its common knowledge that fertility rates in the western world have been declining for quite some time. We are fatter (and good at justifying it), more stressed and ingest a heap more chemicals than we are sposed to. We are wealthier, which seems to be the biggest problem, which makes us unhealthier, makes contraception and abortion easier to access and we are more self centred. The list goes on and on and on................

So maybe rather than the world ending with a bang we just fade away, not able to replace ourselves at a rate to stop population decline. Well I sure wish that some sociological groups would.
