Ugh someone pick up a history book once in awhile other than the bible.
World is a hell of a lot better than it has ever been for humanity as a whole. Why do you think we are pushing 8billion?
Like a good textbook (not revisionist history) on Western Civ?
Christianity is the reason western civilization reached the zenith it has. And, no, the present population has nothing to do with the moral state of its peoples. In fact, the West’s culture has degraded — almost everybody older then twenty realizes this — the root cause being the rejecting of Judea-Christian values 60 years ago and the cascading effect in entertainment, business, academia, and politics. And disenfranchised youth leading to mass shootings.
The population has more to do with general improvement in water, food, and shelter, and medications, not to mention the eradication of many diseases worldwide.
