What about Voluntary Human Extinction?
Other threads have asked about the choice to not have children or to limit the number of children. So when I saw this I thought it would be interesting to bring it up:
The Voluntary Human Extinction Movement http://www.vhemt.org /
"May we live long and die out"
Phasing out the human race by voluntarily ceasing to breed will allow Earth's biosphere to return to good health. Crowded conditions and resource shortages will improve as we become less dense.
I don't know much about this group - just got the link in an email today. But they seem to propoes the voluntary extinction of humans so the Earth can heal and become healthy again.
I can't see humans becoming extinct voluntarily. Especially since as "we become less dense" the imperative to reduce our population would be less and less needed. But it is interesting to see this proposal.

1. I don't know about voluntary extinction
as in "refraining from breeding."
But we humans tend to do that anyway, except we call them wars, famines, and plagues.

5. Their plan is focused on not having any more children. As opposed to suicide.

7. Great idea. Humans have and continue to drive the life on this planet to extinction.

Human numbers need to be reduced to less than 1 billion for the Earth to heal; many resources are already lost for millions of years. The greatest threat to the Earth and mankind is himself.

GW Bush. He could be helpful here.

16. ****ing unnatural
This sort of silliness shows how screwed up our civilization is..
An inability to see other than black and white doesn't show much analysis, just emotionalism.
No species wishes itself extinct, that's counter to the whole point of evolution.
Let's take this one step at a time. Instead of getting rid of humans, let's get rid of capitalism. I believe that would cure much of what ails us. Then we could deal with the remaining problems with egalitarianism and justice.
It's capitalism or a habitable planet.
These people are freaking :mental:.

Yes, DUmb****, I'd love to help you in your quest. We'll start with the members list (excluding moles, of course) of DU! :tongue: :evillaugh: :evillaugh: :evillaugh:

It can't be this easy, can it?
All we have to do is convince the DUmmies that the best way they can help the environment and teh Obamassiah is to "return to the mothership", and they all put on their Nike Air-Jordans, line up, take the proffered dixie cup of Kool-aid, and go lie down in the purple bunk beds?
Shit! Why didn't anybody ****in' say so prior to the '06 elections? :thatsright:

You first, DUmmies.

Which brings me to my next point. Don't Smoke Crack.
The planet is being driven into extinction? WTF? As in, it will be non-existent? In a perfect world, these idiots would have already been Darwin'ed out.

Just because you're self-hating and suicidal, DUmbshi'ites, doesn't mean everyone else is.
-
In a perfect - Spartan - world, these pukes would have either been left outside the city walls at birth, or killed by their peers at academy for being unfit to survive.

Of course you would never walk the walk now would you?
The Earth without humans serves no purpose.
That is not say that the Earth would be better off without liberals, it undoubtedly would be and there should be a hunting season on them.

Indeed - its one of the problems of a benevolent society. We end up protecting the stupid -- those who should have managed to kill themselves off, and in return for their survival they breed stupid kids, that need further saving from The Darwin Awards nomination process.
I know this lacks all sorts of sensitivity and isn't politically correct, but that's how I feel. By helping to keep folks such as the stupidest and most insane DUmmies alive, we are insuring a future that contains even more of them. BTW -- when I say "stupid" I don't mean "low IQ" -- I mean "willfully ignorant" - Many folks with lower IQ know its wrong to smoke crack - the willfully ignorant also know its wrong but do it anyway.. And then we get to save their sorry asses in emergency rooms and rehab clinics worldwide.

A mass suicide of the DUmpmonkeys would be like pouring chlorine in the gene pool!
And for the sake of humanity, the rest who don't off themselves should be sterilized.
After all, it's for the planet.

I have the first step of a plan ready---cut off all government aid, foodstamps, gummint paid for healthcare, free housing, etc......... That's a start.
Just might be the last step needed.

This makes me wish I'd had more than 5 kids.

You would think that with thier full on support for abortion they would simply die out and save us the greif of having to deal with them.

Don't you mean "almost wish?" ;)

Good Lord... and these a$$wipes are allowed to vote?

Do people learn this garbage from the universities? Hating oneself for being human?

They didn't teach that crap in the college I attended.

Since someone has already said, "You first". Let me put it another way, "Let me hold that door for you".

PG, I'm a tad miffed at myself that I didn't post this earlier, but they think that they should be the ones that aren't sterile. I am in full agreement that the world would be much better off without liberals. The limit should be that there is no limit on taking liberals. Any weapon would be suitable, from the smallest .17 HMR to an 8-inch howitzer.

Aren't these the same people who throw a clot if anyone mentions abstainence to a teenager? :confused:

I think Homo Sapiens as a species is pretty safe from the threat of this idea ever catching on in a big way.
:whatever:

Hey, remember when mind-numb cultists like these used to off themselves? Whatever happened to those days? :confused:

Birth rates for caucasians are already in severe decline. Methinks that the OP is a racist that wants to rid the world of blacks, Asians, and arabs.

Apparently Darwin has become a real slacker over the past 20 years.

Every time I haul out the boat and row over to Skins's island, I silently pray, please God, let Skins's island be barren and vacant and laid waste, the primitives having voluntarily extinguished themselves for the Greater Good of Humanity, and for saving the eart-er, planet.
That's just about the only plea to God I've ever had, that's never been answered.

A good start would be with 4500+/- leeches on society that produce little to nothing and take far more than their fair share form the productive members.
I can get behind that.

Without evil in the world, how would we understand good?
I guess DUmmy's provide a service, as despicable as it is.

Seriously, why would humans want to off themselves. Anyways if these DUmmies and Primitives want to off themselves, that is fine with me. Just more space for me. :-)
