trapQ:
What planet are you on? How is China the most powerful nation in the world when you have USA and Russia?

vivaciousvivi:

From the 1970s China had a "one child" policy which India later adopted though not as hard as China.
The policy was relaxed in 2016 or so.
China's very strong communist government realised quickly that if it must gain a reckoning in the international community, going by that fact that it had no solid minerals or Oil deposits (just a large population and its ability to grow its hydro electricity), then it must find ways to curb population growth - which helped it grow its cheap labour base for the industrialised West.

Ugosample:


do you even know what you are saying? ?

China's population has been over a billion for a long time
The same for India
that means that there population did not double over the last 40 years

Nigeria'a population has tripled since the 1960s, and that is the big problem

it's not the number, it's the growth RATE

Nigeria's population was estimated to be 140m in the last census

And it is projected to be 240-250m in 2025

That is almost double in less than 20 years

And you think there is nothing wrong with it

quid:

But a population of 1.4 billion is not making China poor and miserable, as you would have us believe

HisSexcellency:

They know the consequences of over population that's why they are strictly enforcing birth control

oomar:
hum! justice is the key only. look at chine,india,and indonesia how they develop because of justice!

Throwback:



The logic is that men are polygamous.

So their many different wives have a limit to their children allocation.

safarigirl:
thank you for this.

It is men impregnating women, so, they ought to limit the amount of children per father as well. What if they limit it to three and the man wants more kids? He will now go and remarry?

I wonder if anyone thought this idea through

" GOD said ; Go ye into the world and multiply " children are Blessing from GOD... when you have a big family ... your name will go places ... history will never forgets you ... you see the birds,they neither plant nor harvest... but they are well fed ...

quid:
Tell the FG to stop mismanaging Nigeria's money. The mumu-ism of FG has assumed astronomical proportions. Human beings are resources to be tapped properly.

quid:

I hope you realize that the Economist magazine does not spread rumors, like Nigeria's APC

Gerrard59:


So the old testament is obsolete, right?



That it talks about monogamy doesn't imply prohibition of polygamy.

trapQ:
World's most powerful man is different from world's most powerful country. Moreover the former changes every year.

quid:

The president of China is powerful because his country is powerful.
Very simple matter.
Population is power.

trapQ:
Then I guess India is the second most powerful country going by your logic?

quid:

China has 1.4 billion people.
China is now the most powerful country in the world.
FG needs to Receive Sense ASAP

Ichabod (search for the meaning. It's Hebrew)

trapQ:
I Know your type. You're the type that twists facts. Can you show me a verse where the Bible encourages polygamy?

Mynd44:
How about number of children per men? If you want to limit the number of children woman have, it only makes sense to do so with men too seeing that a lot of times, men are the people who decide for the family

Throwback:



The logic is that men are polygamous.

So their many different wives have a limit to their children allocation.

1StopRudeness:


Must everything be a contest btw men and women...u people just create fight out of nothing....isn't this clear enuf...some issues are just about women...even though men are somehow in the background....man is just a donor, and infinitesimal factor in this equation...
You can always get ur sperm from anywhere. It doesn't have to be a husband that will get u pregnant...some men don't even know they have kids....if divorce is still legal and gonna be foreverlly legal..u can't tell the new wife not to have her own quota of kids just because the divorcee husband has got two from the first marriage...

abbeyty:
To make it properly the men should be castrated after 2 kids. Let practice that for the next 20 years and see how it goes

quid:

yeah but 1.4 billion population
The great USA is only about 330 million people.
China population is 4 times that of USA population.
Why do you think Trump trembles whenever he remembers China ?

Abeg population is power.
World Bank and IMF can go jump off a bridge with their lies.

Seahawk:
Shut up

quid:

I repeat: China's 1.4 billion population did not produce misery and poverty, as the World Bank and IMF continue to deceive people about

vivaciousvivi:

Your argument is flawed and you are reaching---miserably.
My point was to correct your wrong statement concerning child bearing laws.
I did that.
