    support policies that promote childbearing.

    …like making abortion legal in all 50 states again? Like comprehensive sex education in schools? Like treating women as people and not property?

    The most effective way for the Southern Baptists to promote childbearing would be for them to stay the fuck out of politics!

      Note them prioritizing childbearing and not childrearing. Though they also aren’t prioritizing childbearing regardless of what they say.

        A lot of these conservative groups have their heads fully packed with eugenics and social darwinian philosophy. The goal is to just keep popping kids out and come-what-may. Eventually, a large enough population will produce some ubermensch. And then you breed the ubermench to get your prodigies and your messiahs.

        It’s Genetics meets Calvinism. If you succeed, its because you’ve got the Purest Blood. If you fail, it is because you have trash DNA and should be cleansed to make way for the superior people who will follow.
