    "The state of the world"? What is that? Where is it located? There's no such thing.

    Children get their most powerful lessons from their parents, in early childhood. A parent who cares is quite capable of providing a great home and environment for a child, they don't need the world to be in any particular state.

    According to Isaac Asimov's Book of Facts (1979), an Assyrian clay tablet dating to approximately 2800 BC was unearthed bearing the words "Our earth is degenerate in these latter days. There are signs that the world is speedily coming to an end. Bribery and corruption are common." This is one of the earliest examples of the perception of moral decay in society being interpreted as a sign of the imminent end.

    I think you're overgeneralizing just a bit.

    The answer to your question is: No. It doesn't. I still want one, no more than two. I think it's incredibly irresponsible to have any more in an already severely overcrowded world unless you've got clear means to support them and raise them.

    To not breed because the world is not as you would have it be is surrender.
