So not true. Just because you never learned it doesn't mean that none of us did.

Uhhhh, then you aren't really against censorship.

The fertility rate is below replacement levels in something like 80% of the world. Although life expectancy is now longer, we aren't reproducing enough to make up for those who are dying.
