A recent Associated Press story on the work of the ASPCA had this to say: It took years of campaigning to change thinking about sterilizing pets, but it has paid off. This year fewer than 4 million unwanted dogs and cats will be euthanized, down from as many as 20 million before 1970. There are… Continue reading The Orwellian Logic Behind Abortion and Population Control

“Gendercide”: 160 Million Baby Girls Killed for Being Girls
The generally left-leaning Foreign Policy has published a jaw-dropping article written by a pro-choice reporter, Mara Hvistendahl, who documents how an unholy alliance between the US government, the United Nations, population control groups, and Planned Parenthood lead to the death of 160,000,000 unborn children for nothing more than being female. This wasn’t some backwards culture somewhere “out there.” This… Continue reading “Gendercide”: 160 Million Baby Girls Killed for Being Girls
Why’s New York City’s Population Growth Slowing? Abortion.
Here’s something I thought I’d never see: the New York Times is lamenting slow population growth. In New York City, no less. It turns out, the reasons for their concern are political — the Times is worried about a less political powerful New York, and what that means for the DNC (although they stop short of saying this… Continue reading Why’s New York City’s Population Growth Slowing? Abortion.
The Overpopulation Debate at a Glimpse
Children too are a gift from the LORD, the fruit of the womb, a reward. Like arrows in the hand of a warrior are the children born in one’s youth. Blessed are they whose quivers are full. They will never be shamed contending with foes at the gate. – Psalm 127:3-5 The Economist publishes a… Continue reading The Overpopulation Debate at a Glimpse
90s Flashback: Creepy Propaganda for Kids
Yesterday, I was reading an obituary written by Robert Poole, of Reason Magazine, for Dave Nolan, the recently-departed founder of the Libertarian Party. In it, he says: Dave and I came to libertarianism by similar paths, growing up reading Robert Heinlein’s individualist-oriented science fiction and then discovering Ayn Rand’s writings. For some reason, this sentence… Continue reading 90s Flashback: Creepy Propaganda for Kids
The Terrifying Record of Modernism
In John 17:11-18, Jesus says to His Father that the Apostles “do not belong to the world any more than I belong to the world,” but that as “You sent Me into the world, so I sent them into the world.” We are called as Christians to be in the world but not of it.… Continue reading The Terrifying Record of Modernism
Great Arguments Against Neo-Malthusianism
I was surprised to hear that Tertullian, an early Christian apologist, was an early fearmonger about overpopulation: In the year 200 AD, there were approximately 180million human beings on the planet Earth. And at that time a Christian philosopher called Tertullian argued: ‘We are burdensome to the world, the resources are scarcely adequate for us…… Continue reading Great Arguments Against Neo-Malthusianism
The Vatican’s Shaking Things Up!
Dr. Jeff Mirus over at Catholic culture puts the pieces together, arguing that the Church is “on the prowl.” Rather than sitting back and waiting until the next scandal hits, or focusing on maintaining the Status Quo, we see the Vatican reaching out actively in a number of areas: Vatican diplomats at the UN have… Continue reading The Vatican’s Shaking Things Up!
Study Shows: “Population Bomb” Theory Rots Statisticians’ Brains
Imagine reading a lead-in to a story that said something like, “For people who are looking for ways to help the economy, here’s one radical idea that could have a big long-term impact, some economists say: Close your business.” To explain further, they might say something even more bizarre, like: “A study by economists at… Continue reading Study Shows: “Population Bomb” Theory Rots Statisticians’ Brains
