    What do you guys think of this? Me...

    http://www.vhemt.org/

    VHEMT (pronounced vehement) is a movement not an organization. It's a movement advanced by people who care about life on planet Earth. We're not just a bunch of misanthropes and anti-social, Malthusian misfits, taking morbid delight whenever disaster strikes humans. Nothing could be farther from the truth. Voluntary human extinction is the humanitarian alternative to human disasters.

    We don't carry on about how the human race has shown itself to be a greedy, amoral parasite on the once-healthy face of this planet. That type of negativity offers no solution to the inexorable horrors which human activity is causing.

    Rather, The Movement presents an encouraging alternative to the callous exploitation and wholesale destruction of Earth's ecology.

    As VHEMT Volunteers know, the hopeful alternative to the extinction of millions of species of plants and animals is the voluntary extinction of one species: Homo sapiens... us.

    Each time another one of us decides to not add another one of us to the burgeoning billions already squatting on this ravaged planet, another ray of hope shines through the gloom.

    When every human chooses to stop breeding, Earth's biosphere will be allowed to return to its former glory, and all remaining creatures will be free to live, die, evolve (if they believe in evolution), and will perhaps pass away, as so many of Nature's "experiments" have done throughout the eons.

    It's going to take all of us going.

    oh GOD! At first...i thought it was a suicide assist thing. 'Lets kill ourselves so that the earth can be returned back to it's normal state' ...i'm like 'wtf kind of logic is that?! If you are doing something GOOD..(returning the earth to it's homeostasis) and consider yourself to be a 'GOOD' person...why rid yourself off the earth...and leave it in the hands of the 'BAD' people so they can destroy it?'

    Then I realized it was about abstaining from procreation. no thanks...i want kids someday =) ...cute little half white/indian girl running around in an indian dress screaming at the top of her lungs cause she's happy.

    Mythbuster, I think the article you quoted is very sick. It is disturbing that there are groups that will attempt to manipulate thinking in this direction.

    One thing kinda made me think of WT.

    "When every human chooses to stop breeding, Earth's biosphere will be allowed to return to its former glory, and all remaining creatures will be free to live, die, evolve"

    Doesn't WT promote that there will not be marrying in the new system, and thus, no procreation?

    Those guys have been around forever. I honestly think they are at least 1/2 satirical.
