Considering I'll probably be a priest in a few years, yes.

You in seminary? That's cool. We could use a resident clergyman.
I don't see what that has to do with anything.
that doesn't fit with my experience so far
While the second kid certainly doesn't have the impact the first one has, I don't think it makes less work than 1 kid.It's true they often busy themselves by playing with each other, but just as often you'll have to step in because they're fighting over something. And I've yet to see a stronger force of chaos as two kids playing.
2 kids are less than twice the work of 1 kid, but every kid's going to add a bit of work (even if you disregard the first year or so)
I don't have kids. I don't want kids. And now I'm too old to have kids, so at least now my mother's family can shut up about it.
However, I've had adopted children for 35 years. They're short (usually 18" tall or less), walk on 4 feet, don't have a lot of conversation, and the youngest loves to play on the computer (literally; I wake up from a nap and find paw prints on the keyboard and my settings changed). And no, I can't just take off for a weekend without making arrangements for care. As a result, I haven't gone anywhere for a weekend since my dad went to the hospital/nursing home (5 years).
But I wouldn't give them up for anything.

On the topic of this thread it's too early for children. I have a full head of hair. Let me at least look like this when I have kids:
Also while I'm told that me and gf would make some great looking mixed race babies, like I always tell her neice, "You're the reason why your parent's can't have nice things."

Even though it'll be a few years before you're ordained, my congratulations!
Only unmarried men can be ordained for priesthood in the Catholic church.

Just remember, if you are the token male in the nexus of childrearing you are going to need to stay home full time so that you give your couple dozen children a healthy male role model. Your wives will have to be the career minded parties.

I just like bees. I think they're awesome. Plus they make honey, which is also awesome. Drones make for hilarious comparisons. Wasps suck.
Corn and soybeans personally, but I really find almost anything to do food production interesting. I fancy myself agrarian, but it wouldn't really be true for the most part.

What about this?
Granted, it comes from hornets and is in all likelihood a placebo, but still. Just please, please, PLEASE in the name of all that is holy don't import the giant flying hellbeasts that produce it.
