Are Catholics to remain silent when the Vatican opens the bronze doors of St. Peter’s to population control disciples and abortion proponents like Jeffrey Sachs, Hans Schellnhuber, Naomi Klein, Ban Ki Moon, Governor Jerry Brown, NY Mayor Bill de Blasio?

And let's not forget Margaret Archer, fiendish president of the Pontifical Academy of Social Sciences.

-----------

"A row has broken out between the most senior woman at the Vatican and an American pro-life advocate...

...“I am appointed by the Pope and responsible directly to him. I’m afraid that leaves you and your cohort out in the cold,” she said...

...She went on to say: “Why are we not allowed to speak to Jeffrey Sachs or the Secretary General of the UN?” Pointing out that Pope Francis had invited Ban Ki-moon to a private audience, she asked Dr Gennarini: “Do you really have a higher moral standard than the Pope? Or is your own minimalistic version of the Creed, consisting of the single item: ‘We believe in the ethical depravity of abortion’ considered to be an improvement?”

On the population control -- ask them this.


G. K. Chesterton

"Surplus population"

"SCROOGE is not only as modern as Gradgrind but more modern than Gradgrind. He belongs not only to the hard times of the middle of the nineteenth century, but to the harder times of the beginning of the twentieth century; the yet harder times in which we live. Many amiable sociologists will say, as he said, "Let them die and decrease the surplus population." The improved proposal is that they should die before they are born.

"It is notable also that Dickens gives the right reply; and that with a deadly directness worthy of a much older and more subtle controversionalist. The answer to anyone who talks about the surplus population is to ask him whether he is the surplus population; or if he is not, how he knows he is not. That is the answer which the Spirit of Christmas gives to Scrooge."

~G.K. Chesterton: Introduction to A Christmas Carol. (1922)
