Is this a conspiracy of silence here?
The math is too difficult? No link available which has the graph?

Ok so I did some of the math myself, for one thousand years time, the
population growth rate based on the rate of growth from 1950 to 1999
And so if the growth rate stayed the same as that from 1950 to 1999 by
the year 3000 the population would be
46,558,346,913,302,666 people.
46 quadrillion 558 trillion 346 billion 913 million 302 thousand 666
people
And I arrived at that figure by taking the population of the world in
1950 and the population in 1999 and the factor is 2.2 times more people
every 50 years.
So thats a thousand years, in a million years, humans would outnumber the
stars, and a billion years, they would outnumber the quarks.
Probably long before that as I only did the math for 1000 years and
already it would be an astronomical number.

What is the number of the beasts?
6.66 billion?
Six point 3 score 6 billion?
"Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of
the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six
hundred threescore and six."
