HOW A RELIGIOUS LEADER DID WHAT GOVERNMENTS COULDNāT - BOOST BIRTH RATES BY 42%
For decades, world leaders have thrown billions at collapsing birth rates - tax breaks, subsidies, paid leave - only to see fertility plummet.
But in 2007, one man changed everything. Patriarch Ilia II of Georgia baptized thousands of newborns, elevating large families from personal choice to a sacred duty.
The result? A 42% spike in fertility, outpacing any government program.
Marriage rates rose, abortions fell, and Georgia sustained above-replacement birth rates for nearly a decade.
Meanwhile, Japan, South Korea, and much of the West are spiraling toward population collapse, with fertility rates as low as 1.1 children per woman - far below the 2.1 needed for stability.
Could the secret to reversing global population decline lie in faith and culture, not financial incentives?
