Wesley J. Smith: Mandatory Sterilization in China

Some of the most earnest global warming alarmists look to China as the model for radically controlling human population in order to SAVE THE PLANET!  But that is to long for tyranny.  Example: China is forcing thousands of people to be involuntarily sterilized for violating the “one child” policy. From the story:

Doctors in southern China are working around the clock to fulfil a government goal to sterilise — by force if necessary — almost 10,000 men and women who have violated birth control policies. Family planning authorities are so determined to stop couples from producing more children than the regulations allow that they are detaining the relatives of those who resist. About 1,300 people are being held in cramped conditions in towns across Puning county, in Guangdong Province, as officials try to put pressure on couples who have illegal children to come forward for sterilisation.

Radical environmentalism increasingly seems sympathetic to tyrannical “solutions.”  China is the last country that we should seek to emulate.

Maybe they have a point. I prefer it to abortion. These are beautiful kids, but no one should just make pregnancy a career, having children dependent on welfare.

Do you realize that if it is ever legal to sterilize for the “hard cases,” it will end up being justification to sterilize everybody with more than one or two children?

Don’t go there, even in jest.

We'd best take this nation back before we worry about anything else. Misdirected compassion got us in to this mess, we allowed it to be used against us. Fat and stupid Christians allowed their churches to be hijacked by the marxists through their mindless compassion.

Kumbaya my hiney! They aren't serving God, they serve the Devil!

If America fails Christianity will go back to secret meetings in the dark and bloody persecution. I am here because of inquisition 250 years ago. It can happen again and there is no place to go.
