To be fair, US Catholics appear to have roughly the same birthrate as US Evangelical Protestants, although that might change as Catholic demographics shift to Latino.

What we (the world) will be awash in is Moslems and sub Saharan Africans unless those curves get bent via behavior changes, resource depletion, or war. I can't say that the Pope is much involved in that situation.

Like the 15% of (mostly-sub Saharan) Africa that identifies as Catholic? https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Catholic_Church_in_Africa

That's a good point, but do Catholics account for more than their share of births in Nigeria (5.5 children per woman, or, as we say in the brave new world, 'people who menstruate')?

hah. Partly answered.

You are not following The Science close enough. It's bodies. "Bodies with vaginas".
