Best Answer

Religions usually promoted procreation. Historically, this was beneficial because the birth rates and death rates roughly cancelled each other out. In the modern-day, with medical advances, the population is growing very quickly and the religious belief that procreation is a necesity is worsening the problem.

Do any religions encourage overpopulation?

No. There is no religion that encourages overpopulation. In fact most will encourage small families or celebacy. The above is sort of true - but sort of not true. semantics, perhaps.. no religion preaches that we should have "overpopulation" but some religions feel that we should "Be fruitful and multiply" and this does add to the population. some religions feel that no methods should be taken to improve your odds of having sex but not conceiving - so, those would add to the population as well. also, I could see that some might say that religions who take a stand against abortion or euthanasia are increasing the population, as well.
