    Why the World Economic Forum Wants Depopulation

    In this episode of the Current Reality Podcast, Michael and Wade address the deadly and dehumanizing issue of population control, critiquing the Darwinian idea that the Earth is overpopulated, championed by Paul Ehrlich, Planned Parenthood, and the World Economic Forum. They argue against viewing humans merely as consumers, advocating instead for the biblical view of humans as creators and stewards of Earth, made in God's image. The discussion extends to questioning modern societal trends of prioritizing personal luxury over building households, drawing on teachings from Augustine and Jerome. This episode aims to reshape the listener's understanding of the value of children and the importance of procreation within marriage. It underlines the intrinsic value of human life and the sanctity of family as central to Christian belief, encouraging a departure from the societal norm of willful childlessness among married couples for personal gratification. 00:00 Welcome to the Current Reality Podcast 00:21 Diving Into Population Control and Modern Myths 00:48 The Echoey Room Explained: Behind the Scenes 01:21 Reflecting on Modern Conveniences and Historical Hardships 04:07 Darwinism and Its Impact on Humanity's Self-Perception 09:37 World Economic Forum: A Deep Dive into Its Controversial Agenda 40:46 The Jaffe Memo: A Blueprint for Population Control? 48:54 Rethinking Population: A Faith Perspective 50:42 The Value of Human Life in Christian Thought 51:21 Human Beings: Consumers or Creators? 52:25 The Myth of Overpopulation Debunked 53:12 Historical Perspectives on Population and Prosperity 54:37 Challenging Modern Attitudes Towards Procreation 01:01:27 The Biblical Mandate for Fruitfulness 01:02:56 Reframing the Value of Children in Society 01:11:02 Confronting Personal Convictions on Parenthood 01:30:44 The Church's Role in Valuing Life and Future Generations For questions or comments, send us an email at currentrealitypodcast@gmail.com.
