    ?

    I happen to love maths.
    I actually didn't think you'd get it.

    Having 2 children is not balancing since each child could then have 2 babies each.
    So the 'population' grows. But anyway whatever.
    Its actually the Adam and Eve type of story (which didn't happen by the way)

      You're not taking into consideration the birthrate, death rate, and infertility rate.

      Starvation, disease, infertility, abstinence, and war are factors in population growth.

      Zero population is maintained by 2.8 children/couple. Fact.

      You're way off.

        Of course these other factors are present. Nonetheless they are heavily OUTWEIGHED by the exponential rate of the multipliers
