I've posted several threads on population, a subject I find interesting. What do you think of this? I find it very thought provoking. Why would God choose to destroy wicked mankind just after a population explosion? How many people have the witnesses actually saved? And look at where 6 million witnesses would appear on this graph. Should they not also be increasing exponetialy in order to just keep up?

Brian,
Interesting chart. The facts speak for themselves.
They are going out nearly as fast as they come in. The sad thing is, more would be going out if they felt like they had the freedom to do so.
They have failed mankind. What will god do to them!!!

Path,
And no overcrowding!
Interestingly enough, when you only look at the part of the graph that contains actual statiscal info and leave out the predicted part, you get a virtually exponential graph, but obviously Earth cannot support the unique growth pattern we see now for very long.
2SYN, that is true, and more importantly, the earth could not sustain the number of resurected that the witnesses predict. As the population increases, the number dying each day also increases, even in spite of longer life expectancy.
About the future of the graph, the limiting factors of population growth such as space to live and space to grow food cause population growth to slow even if this happens artificially early due to legislation and cost. Similar paterns are seen in animal populations and are predicted by chaos mathematics.
Actually the gurus at the UN are reporting that they expect the population to top out at around11 Billion or so. At that point the birth rate in third world countries is expected to do like it has in Europe.
I think I may add the number of witnesses to the graph. It will be a tiny line right at the bottom. Another point also comes to mind: Every day that passes before God acts is more thousands of babies and children dead.
