Mark
Daddy had a serious conflict with aunt Angelika yesterday again.
Anna
What is the matter at all? Daddy couldn´t never like aunt Angelika at all, but during the last time the dispites are rising up.
Mark
Probably the two discussed about religion again, like so often in the past.
Anna
Nevertheless, earlier they dicussed in a rational way, but now...
Mark
Might there be still other problems too?
Anna
I don´t know what has happened.
Mark
Aunt Angelika was ill more often during the last time.
Anna
Oh no, I think she felt only a little bit unwell.
Mark
Nevertheless, otherwise she is always being very well.
Anna
She has also got a very thick belly at once.
Mark
Than she has to be on a diet.
Anna
I don´t think that the nutritation is the cause for it.
Mark
What du you think? You think at all...
Anna
Yes, mami also said that aunt Angelika is pregnant again.
Mark
Oh, now I understand. That´s the why aunt Angelika and daddy disputed in a hard way.
Anna
Daddy let sterilized himself, after I had been born.
Mark
He said that world would be overpopulated and therefore everybody may be allowed to have got only two kids at the most.
Anna
Oh that will be terrific! Aunt Angelika will soon have got already three kids. Will she be put into the jailhouse?
Mark
Who sould put aunt Angelika into the jailhouse?
Anna
Perhaps the police?
Mark
I don´t think so. The state wants absolutely people to make a lot of kids.
Anna
But daddy opposes.
Mark
Surely, and he ´d explained his opinion to us. A ship can transport a certain number of people, and, if there are too much people on the ship, the ship will sink and all men will have to die.
Anna
Realy, our country is very cowded. Our school bus is late nearly every morning because of the terrific trafic.
Mark
A lot of people can´t find new jobs and become poor.
Anna
Than they have to collect old bottles of beer in the streets, if they don´t want to die of hunger.
Mark
But the situation in Africa is still more worth. The geography teacher told so.
Anna
Daddy said at the time grandma had been born there were only 2 billions of men on the earth, but the number of men has been more than tripled till today.
Mark
But grandma was already very old...
Anna
She wasn´t very old at all. There are men on the earth more than thousand times longer.
Mark frightened
...and in such a short period the number of men had been rising up in such a way?
Anna
Yes. ...but it will be more worse that the increasing of population hasn´t been stopped till today.
Mark
Will our ship, I mean the earth, been destructed than?
Anna
That wouldn´t be avoidable at all.
Mark
We may not allow it!
Anna
And now I can understand why daddy and aunt Angelika dispited all over the last time.
Mark
But aunt Angelika knew at the beginning that one is not allowed to get such a lot of kids. Why is she pregnant again? In other cases she is very responsible and she is working for the social welfare in a volunteer way at all.
Anna
I guess that depends with her belief.
Mark
I don´t understand it. The church says that the religion wants to improve the standard of life of all people, especially the poor ones and demand to object hunger and misery on the earth.
Anna
But we cannot be succesfull, if we always increase more and more.
Mark
Exact!
Anna
Is the church so stupid, that the church cannot understand it?
Mark
O don´t think so. Daddy said the church wants to get a lot of kids - as much as possible - in order the church wants to get a lot of new members to confirm its power.
Anna
Independet, wheter the kids will get a chance for a good life or not?
Mark
I think so.
Anna
Now I can understand daddy very well because he opposes the church.
Mark
Daddy would have like to get still further kids, but he renounced...
Anna
...because such a behavior would be very irresponsible.
Mark
I think we can be proud od our daddy.
Anna
You are right.
