Happy as a pig in manure, Larry King of TV fame is a father again at age 65. His wife,Shawn, is 38- a little " tired " for the baby making years. We read in the paper that Larry is " reinventing manhood ". Here we can be sure that money and ego is a bigger factor than MACHO in procreating the race.
I'm convinced that fatherhood changes a man as profoundly as motherhood changes a woman - but alas - too often for the worse: It makes him more possessive. more greedy, more aggressive, more full of himself egotistical - and more boorish. Happy fatherhood ! In a world that has just passed the 6 billion mark !
The reckless reproduction of the human race is itself a crime against humanity. How can human dignity be preserved in an over-crowded, ecologically devastated world ?
Boston Globe columnist Jeff Jacoby was just plain NUTS to welcome baby 6 billion into the world . " Be fruitful and multiply ! " saith the Lord.
But when will He command us to stop ?
