If it pleases the admin (primarily), YW will implement this thread where he / she will give his / her thoughts on various issues he /she comes across.
Whereas the entire membership can contribute, the thread, for as long as it goes, will be more like a monologue.
YW hopes QW will not be invoked and the thread shut down or YW usered or worse banned like QW.

Good move! There was a time I wished you'd start something like this. You must have heard my thoughts!

Last week, YW was a participant in the 9th annual ethics conference in Strathmore University. A most informative conference. Kayamba for Strathmore University. For lack of time, questions were very limited to 1 or 2 after each presentation. 8 Strathmore students presented research papers on Contraception, Abortion and Population Control respectively. Unfortunately, I could not ask them if hypothetically there are 1 million young people who have reached the age of marrying and bearing offspring but 100,000 choose celibacy. Is it then fair or ethical for the 100,000 to abscond population growth duties and shift this responsibility to the 900,000? I will never know their thoughts about it.

Boss, don't you know it's now getting overcrowded? Kenya itself is limiting births to 2 a couple. Resources are depleting fast: Just the other day Kiambu coffee was cleared for high cost housing, Kitengela growth et al are choking Nairobi Park, do I even have to mention Mau? And on the flipside, are all these condoms bio degradable? re recyclable? By protecting ourselves and avoiding unwanted pregnancies, are we slowly choking our same selves? Do I need to even need to mention pills and cancer? Do you feel the talk was all encompassing, seeing as it is you didn't mention health and long livity?

Good move! There was a time I wished you'd start something like this. You must have heard my thoughts! @ Tycho Your thoughts were audible? (Pun intended.) @ YW if u ask if it's fair to ABSCOND POPULATION DUTIES, are you implying that there is a target population that is supposed to be achieved and everybody has a duty to take part? In my opinion, if one chooses to be celibate for noble reasons such Choosing to increase the quality of Population rather than quantity the it's perfectly in order. If it were to be unfair, whom would the unfairness be directed at?

@ Mukiri, YW thought so too. But the students made very scholarly and reasoned and supported arguments that the use of contraceptives was not ethical.
I think the condom point is conducive for their argument.
@kaka M, something like that. The students insisted that population is the greatest resource a country has.
YW did not observe a distinction being made between quality and quantity of population. Anyway, they concluded that population control was unethical.
Whereas YW can dispute the students research findings, that is not the aim of YW musings. The students invited further research about these issues anyway.
YW loved their approach, though did not necessarily agree with their conclusions.
Kayamba for the students for the effort.
@Tycho, your thoughts are pervasive, evidently.
@Robinhood, so far is it a good idea?

But i am in total agreement with the students..pop is our greatest asset. Kwanza with aids ,cancer road accidents decimating our numbers. It should be the moral duty of all women in kenya two get at least 3 offspring. Kenya is largely unhabited north of the railway I may be wrong..but then I could be right

So, once upon a time in the distant past YW subscribed to a Dr. David Duke to get his periodic views and updates on zionism. Today, YW is surprised to get an email from Dr. Duke about the up coming US elections.
Whereas YW does not agree with Dr. Dukes past as a senior Ku Klux Klan man, his present is far more agreeable.
Watching what the jews are doing to Palestinians in the name of God is heart wrenching. Before you say the Palestinians shoot rockets into Israel, knowing the sentiment the Jews have for christians will pause the thought and render that thought unspoken.
Back to the US elections, according to Dr. Duke and as viewed by YW, Obama vs Romney, its as good as pinky-pinky-ponky ..... lets-choose-a-president!
