Isn't the world over-populated? And doesn't this mean that there are more humans to suffer than there have been at any point in the past?

Is there any arguing against the fact that the world is over-populated? Can you believe that people try to make that argument?

Never the less, even if there are more people to experience that suffering, does that make the suffering itself greater?
Won't we be fine until the resources we depend on fall to the point where we no longer have what we need?
And realistically, when will that happen?

If we haven't yet run out of resources and maintain the ability to sustain ourselves, does that mean the earth is indeed over-populated? Is it not possible to debate that earth is not over populated at all, like many authors have claimed in their published, scientific works?

Is suffering not only experienced by living beings? Is it an omnipresent force that is constant?

Is entirely running out of resources a necessity for over-population or does the concept merely need a sizable enough species wherein ecosystems and other animals are being impacted by their presence in a negative way? As long as this is undeniably true, is there any room for debate on that particular subject?

Of course suffering is only experienced by living beings, as far as we can see, but does the quantity of pain matter or is quality more impactful?
And for that matter, can we prove that non-living things do not have their own sort of sentience?

Are we not currently debating over-population? Does this not prove that over-population is a very suitable topic for debate?

Are you implying that, somewhere in time, something,  someone or a group of somethings or someones, has suffered so terribly, that the current suffering of millions pales in comparison?

How could anyone make such an implication about a topic which has no measurable value? Also have you not considered those who still follow the theory of the Malthusian catastrophe; that earth will sustain itself through famine and death?

Would it make me sound dumb if I admit to never having heard of the theory of the Malthusian catastrophe and that I had to google it?

Why wouldn't you know a politically economical train of thought from the eighteenth century, written down by a rather obscure thinker, who is only briefly mentioned in subjects such as geography, politics and history?

Why would we even learn about such theorists in our educational establishments? In fact what are we using our educations for?
