What is the "demographic winter"? It represents the future drastic decline of human population based on a eugenics-based culture causing a decline of the human family as the basic structure of society and civilization. The Washington Post story in the Sentinel & Enterprise "Birth data -- Baby Crisis" highlights a small aspect of this problem, which is already occurring worldwide but is basically ignored by the myth of overpopulation.

There are demographically fewer people being born worldwide than are necessary to maintain the engines of economic and environmental growth at sufficient levels. The demographic research is incontestable: Despite current predictions to the contrary of overpopulation, we are in fact "not breeding like rabbits, but are not dying like flies anymore."

The anticipated worldwide population decline occurring around 2050 to 2065 will accompany critical damage to economies in stagnation, depression and possible free-fall decline of human population, cultures and civilization.

At least five eugenically fostered ideas are at the heart of the worldwide epidemic of fertility decline below replacement levels and have led to the destruction of the family structure necessary for sustained survival as a species: (1) extensive numbers of working females, (2) the sexual revolution, (3) affluence that leads to having fewer children, (4) the divorce revolution, (5) and inaccurate assumptions about over-population and limited resources.

Immigration has provided the needed workers in richer countries, stripping poorer nations of members of families contributing to their indigent family growth and weakened economies. All "growth" is an illusion.

However, social scientists, economists, demographers and like academicians concluded clearly: The only true survivors in this future will be those people who have families of faith.
