Killing your babies to save the planet???

Meet the women who won't have babies - because they're not eco friendly
Daily Mail

"Had Toni Vernelli gone ahead with her pregnancy ten years ago, she would know at first hand what it is like to cradle her own baby, to have a pair of innocent eyes gazing up at her with unconditional love, to feel a little hand slipping into hers - and a voice calling her Mummy.

Now this is insanity! Killing your babies to save the planet??? Taking a life to save a ball of dirt? What exactly are they saving it for anyhow?

Don’t such people ever stop to consider that while people cause problems, it is also people that solve problems? How does she know that she didn’t just murder the person that would solve most of the world’s ecological problems? Perhaps one of the children that she would have had would have perfected a new form of fuel that would have been good for the environment? Perhaps one of her children would have grown up to solve all the problems in the Middle East?

A similar decision by many Christians not to have children, or not to have anymore children, is almost as sad; how do we know that the next child might not be another George Whitefield, another John Calvin or another Mathew Henry? How do we know that God may not use that next child to bring thousands to salvation and change the course of world history? Or maybe have a profound effect on someone else who will change the course of world history? We of all people ought to have hope in what God might do with our children.
