There are non-genetic ways people contribute to survival of our species, you know. People who are unable to or choose not to have children can still have an enormous impact on our gene pool. Adolf Hitler, for example. I know a couple who decided not to have children in order to help with the overpopulation problem. They became teachers. They have probably done more to help with our survival than many unreasoning reproducers.
