Why...

Why bring children into this world? The obvious answer seems to be "because it's an excuse for having sex".

To me, personal survival and procreation are part of a contingency plan, just in case one day we find real answers to the mysteries of life. That's why I can't die now. That's why I want children to follow my path. Because if there's an answer, I don't want to be the one who's given up too early.

It's like when a group of people at work buy lottery tickets... you don't want to be the one left out when they hit the jackpot.

Then again, obviously there's the sex.
