Overpopulation is almost exclusively a problem in places where the
Catholic Church has little or not presence, like the African continent,
India and China.

Give that fact, how you can logically leap to blaming the RCC for
overpopulation in those places is beyond me.

Would you blame the RCC for overpopulation in an athiests' commune?
