Well I'm into pregnant chicks and the only way to satisfy that while married is to keep knocking up your wife.

Also, I like being a dad. I like caring for things. But yeah we have our 5th kid on the way.


I envy men because you don't have to go through all the pain of pregnancy and child birth.

I ask my wife each time, "are you sure you want more?"

She always says yes. She wants as many kids as possible.

With the 5th one, it was a complete accident. But when it happened, both of us went, "ah well, we want more anyways."

My grandmother has said that all 5 of her kids were accidents. :lol:

I’m rather glad that accidents were made, except for one notable exception.

Whatever the motivation is I certainly lack it.

Also, pregnancy sounds like a nightmare, and the end result is not something that interests me. I know I would not like taking care of a kid because as an adolescent/teen I got stuck baby-sitting my baby brother a lot and it was not something I enjoyed. I never want to change another diaper again that is for sure.


The reproduction process/desire is simply the result of blind evolutionary manipulation.
I choose not to be manipulated. 8)


Sure, but that is what I mean i don't feel any such desire, like my desire is to find a way to survive and even enjoy life a little but I never want kids. Also what am I going to bring them into..mad max world complete with the water wars that are coming. Like it would be cruel to take a pregnancy to term at this point.

*see other thread where I am getting priced out of my apartment, even if me and my boyfriend did want kids it would be unaffordable, it is barely affordable to keep a roof on our own heads.

It's nice to think that as long as you don't screw up you're going somewhere nice after you die. Must be comforting.

Even if what awaits is not some version of the Elysian Fields - just the hope that there is something beyond the material as presented is greatly comforting, because nothing could really be worse. Even if the atheists are right - I have spent my days dreaming the most beautiful dream...

It's one of the reasons why I don't judge the religious too harshly and don't debate with them. They have something I don't -- comfort of the mind.

I think that's unlikely. Hell, whatever that is, implies judgement and an alternate outcome. But even in that scenario, I would still prefer it to the materialist world. Better to be a wanted slave than the unwanted, emergent product of undirected chaos. Better still to be an immortal soul in an evil universe, than evanescent in an indifferent one. There is much more hope to be found in the evil universe.

We stumbled into this godforsaken existence through no fault of our own.
What an epic optimist you must be to think that an afterlife could be worth "living".

Pass...
