That's a Lotta Kids
Two questions for the Quiverfull folks:
1. I understand that many of the movement's followers are lower middle class. But is it considered appropriate for people who accept public assistance to become part of this movement? I seem to remember quite a few conservative arguments against allowing moms on "welfare" to have more kids.
2. I can understand the rationale behind the movement. But why does the declining birthrate in specifically white countries worry all of you so much? The Bible doesn't really say much about race, so if one race were to disappear because of an inability to produce enough children, who cares, right? Or is there something else that motivates this concern?
