"If Gore's America (and presumably John Kerry's) is reproducing at a
slower pace than Bush's America, what does this imply for the future?
Well, as the comedian Dick Cavett remarked, "If your parents never had
children, chances are you won't either." When secular-minded Americans
decide to have few if any children, they unwittingly give a strong
evolutionary advantage to the other side of the culture divide. Sure,
some children who grow up in fundamentalist families will become
secularists, and vice versa. But most people, particularly if they have
children, wind up with pretty much the same religious and political
orientations as their parents. If 'Metros' don't start having more
children, America's future is 'Retro.' "

kinda makes you glad that "the likes of mike morris" are so damned eager
to sacrifice their children on the altar of american militarism, don't it?
