### It is skyrocketing among the Amish, who protect themselves from the
antinatalist effects of mass modern culture. Reverend Malthus was not wrong

carrying capacity of their environment. It's just we don't live under
natural conditions anymore, and modern life seems to be quite harmful to
the survival of most humans' genes.
