"It is one of life's mysteries that being wrong about everything has never been much of a barrier to success. Take Thomas Malthus, the British theologian [aka Brit MF]: his big idea was that the number of human beings would necessarily grow faster than the supply of food, leading to calamity. There was little difference, in his mind, between people and rabbits: both were doomed to over-breed, over-consume and starve."

I'm afraid I give a lot more credence to Malthus than this guy does.
