upinwath Posted April 21, 2010 Share Posted April 21, 2010 Minor fly in he ointment. All that bonking is energy consuming and the sleepless nights making sure the little bugger is OK for milk is a bit wasted if you knacker the environment and toss away what cash you have to give them. Of course if the Buddhists have got things nailed, you are crapping in your own pot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kered9 Posted April 22, 2010 Share Posted April 22, 2010 Why would you assume that when your dead what continues in the world we are aware of now has no relevance? It doesn't matter what you believe, until your dead you just won't know. You can't pray to every god just incase, but you can damn well set your children up well just incase. Besides doing things for other people creates long life and happiness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gothic_Angel Posted April 22, 2010 Share Posted April 22, 2010 Stuff the kids, spend their inheritance? Enjoy it while you can? You can't take it with you? That's what I keep telling my parents. Never mind faffing about with life insurance. I can take care of myself now so they should keep the money and go out and enjoy themselves. I doubt I'll leave much behind when I go.

Having 2 children increases your "carbon footprint" by a factor of 40. Not 40% but 40x. The research also makes it clear that potential carbon impacts vary dramatically across countries. The average long-term carbon impact of a child born in the U.S. – along with all of its descendants – is more than 160 times the impact of a child born in Bangladesh. Under current conditions in the U.S., for instance, each child ultimately adds about 9,441 metric tons of carbon dioxide to the carbon legacy of an average parent – about 5.7 times the lifetime emissions for which, on average, a person is responsible. Link. So our current benefits policy, which allows chavs to breed like rats, rather makes a mockery of the government's so-called "green" credentials.
