>They want to see that there are more of their kind on Earth so they'll inherit it (though this doesn't sound meek to me). The same guys probably aren't happy with their competition "breeding like rabbits".

>Perhaps there is another explanation. Perhaps grandparents love bouncing grandkids on their knees and enjoying the thought that some part of their own life work, values, whatever will outlast them. It's not satisfaction that they've bred more effectively than some sort of enemy, it's satisfaction in family and relationships for their own sake. It's a good thing and it isn't proper to recast it with Nazi motives like that.

There's rather such a nazi exploitation of the grandparent's wishes. The mullahs in Kosovo were publicly condemning (in mosques) families with fewer than five children, and publicly praising those with ten or more. Their plan to outbreed Serbs there is in action since late XIX century.

Similar sort of propaganda was spewed by Hitler's machinery, Ceauşescu, radical Serbian right wing (and Serbian Orthodox Church), same in Croatia and its branch of Catholic Church, Stalin... that I know of. It's a time honored traditional way of providing cannon fodder.

I don't like the wild outbreeding the tame. I'd prefer maybe not making more people, but making better people instead. Marx was right, though, the quantity does breed quality, but you never know in advance what that quality will be. I'd prefer fewer, but better educated, more tolerant people.
