Fertility & Higher Meaning:

via Robin Hanson, Twitter:

"fertility rates represent the extent to which individuals conceive of themselves as part of, and beholden to, a transcendent community that reaches across lifespans. To the extent that Christendom or the American experiment or the continuation of the species matters to you, you have kids. But as society has become wealthier, life expectancies longer, and childbearing costlier, the 'price tag' on living out a commitment to a transcendent community has risen."
