Well - you seem to be equating adultery to population problems, which is
of course not the issue at all! My guess is that if we can get enough
education going about transmissible diseases, etc. we may even frighten
a few pleasure heathens into becoming believers, or at least wrappers.
Would that be so bad?

They're only to blame for continuing to perpetuate on a global basis an
attitude of acceptable levels of population growth limited only by the
child bearing years of a woman and her husband's stamina.
