And, recall that "Catholic" Ireland and "Catholic" Italy now have the lowest birth rate in the world. (Try convincing me that Italians have given up sex. LOL!) This, of course, is a major problem since the low birth rate necessitates immigrants (read: Muslims) to do the work.Ireland's birth rate hasn't fallen nearly as far as Italy's. In fact, its estimated TFR (Total Fertility Rate, or number of children born per woman) is 1.87, just a bit below the 2.1 said to signify replacement level. The world average is 2.6 and the United States is 2.08. Italy's TFR is 1.28, close to the bottom. Niger has the world's highest TFR at 7.55. As for immigration to the EU, there are some non-Muslim sources that have been sending increasing numbers to EU countries, such as China, Eastern Europe and Latin America. These are not long-term measures, however, as most of the source countries themselves have seen their TFR's drop in recent years. With just a handful of exceptions, the countries with very high TFR's are in sub-Saharan Africa and are very poor. My LIRR/NYCT blog |
