Rant 6: Breedin' Bumpkins
written @ 5:39 p.m. on 10 July 2006

A few weeks ago I saw this one program on the Discovery Channel about families with unacceptably high amounts of children. And it would figure that they're highly religious families too. Not that I have anything against this (well, maybe I do, but if you want to live your life based on a 16th Century rewrite of an account of "events" that happened several HUNDRED years after they "happened", then it's their prerogative.), but I bet pound to a penny that these simple, misguided folk are still believing it's their duty to "be prosper and multiply."

What's bad about this (one would be hard-pressed to find something of merit to this rediculous practice) is that the queen of these families (you know, the one that turns out these spawn en masse), seems totally Stepford-ed. She has absolutely no qualms about her role as an opinionless 2nd class citizen of the world and nothing but breeding stock for her overly-spermed and equally lunkheaded husband.

Just as equally bad are the breedspawn themselves. They grow up and are confined to antiquated social norms that only they and maybe the Amish still adhere to, perpetuating this horrid and completely unnecessary way of living.

But that's just the beginning. The absolute worst, and I mean WORST thing that can come of this is the horrible overpopulation. A dozen children will each probably yield a dozen or so themselves (unless they wise up or come out gay - god forbid). And if you remember your elementary school math, 12 x 12 = 144. And 144 squared? Don't even get me started on that. These yokels would have the world infested with their kind in a matter of generations if they could.

It disgusts me to no end. Too much to say anything further.

Next time: This was sorta political, but I think I'll have some words to say about Mr. Bush (before the First Ammendment is completely done away with).
