While I'm not sure I agree with you entirely, I will say that any culture that fails at reproducing itself will ultimately be replaced by one that does. The sad thing is that culture will probably have less concern over individual rights and freedoms, and much more likely to be collectivist and religious. Not sure I like where this is headed, honestly, but I hope I'm not around to see the fall of liberal democracy.

You make the same mistake as GP in confusing memetics with genetics. Cultures survive by ideas and behaviors spreading, not by genes. People can spread ideas without having children, and people can have lots of children and have their ideas die out.
