God's Little Blessings
Kevin Swanson reviews a recent commercial that epitomizes the "other worldview." The gist of it - avoid the hassle of children, use a condom. Then he interacts with a remarkably honest article from Online Reason Magazine on why people don't have children. They don't like them.
So why don't people like children? Why are children such a huge hassle that kills "quality of life," in the headlong pursuit of personal peace and affluence?
Kevin and Dave, both fathers of five children themselves, try to explain why the average square footage of homes is twice what it was in 1900 while the birth rate was cut in half. Then, they explain why they think children are a blessing - maybe even a greater than blessing that dry wall even.
