Maurice,
Very interesting, and you could very well be correct. There may be a couple of counter trends though. There are some congregations here that have discovered that a high birth rate for the flock is a good thing. Some Protestant sects and even the Orthodox Jews here have high birth rates, and this is a new thing, and the idea is spreading. Then you have the Muslims, which you have to believe is about as much to do with political agitation as it has to do with religion.

Could be too, that some existing or future political movement discovers that a high birth rate is a useful too, maybe in a nationalistic way, similar to the way the Nazis encouraged the same.

Anyway, I will mentally file away this idea along with several other "Maurice Theories" that I drag out for contemplation from time to time. <grin>
