Pro-abort ‘Population Bomb’ author to speak at Vatica

VATICAN CITY, January 12, 2017 (LifeSiteNews) — The Vatican has invited the undisputed father of the modern, pro-abortion population control movement to present a paper at an upcoming Vatican-run conference.

Dr. Paul Ehrlich, author of the 1968 bestseller The Population Bomb is scheduled to speak in Vatican City during the February 27-March 1 conference that will discuss “how to save the natural world.” The Stanford biologist champions sex-selective abortion as well as mass forced sterilization as legitimate methods to curb population growth.

In his 1968 book, Ehrlich went so far as to defend forced abortion, writing: “Indeed, it has been concluded that compulsory population-control laws, even including laws requiring compulsory abortion, could be sustained under the existing Constitution if the population crisis became sufficiently severe to endanger the society.”

Titled Biological Extinction, the February conference will address what Vatican organizers call an unsustainable “imbalance” between the world’s population and what the earth is capable of producing. The event is jointly sponsored by the Pontifical Academy of Sciences and the Pontifical Academy of Social Sciences.

Paul Ehrlich besmirches the Vatican in the same way Obama besmirched Notre Dame when he spoke there. What are these church leaders thinking?

No, this is much worse. Ehrlich is not just a political huckster and a scientific fraud, he is one of the most evil operators on the planet.

Pope Francis just carried out a purge of the members of the formerly highly-respected Pontifical Academy of Sciences and the Pontifical Academy of Social Sciences. Fired distinguished scientists who shared a Judeo-Christian moral worldview. To what end? I thought.

Now I see.

It was over 40 years ago that Pope Paul VI detected the “smoke” of Satan seeping into the Vatican. This isn’t just smoke. It’s more like an appearance of the Evil One himself.

I usually don’t use this kind of language. Some will think it hyperbolic. But it’s no exaggeration: things are getting worse, much worse, and at a breakneck speed.

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)

I suggest forced castration of people like Erlich. That would work.
Ends justify the means right?

[[pro-abortion population control]] The entire world's population could fit inside texas- one state- with room to spare (Yes, it would be tight and certainly not livable conditions, but this is just an example to put into perspective how FEW people there really are in the world- and how ridiculous the overpopulaiton agenda really is) "So how much land would we need to house all 7 billion of us if we lived in such density? Well, we would need (79 8.36 790 ÷ ÷) 666,265 square kilometers. A big area, no? Well, let's look further... Upon examining the US, we find out that Texas fits the bill nicely. In fact, Texas has 261,797.12 square miles of land, and that is (261792.12 1.602 1.602 × ×) 671,877.17 square kilometers! Which is, in fact, more than the area we need to house all 7 billion of us at typical New York City densities. Meaning every man, woman, and child living and breathing on the face of the Earth could fit in relative comfort within the land territory of the State of Texas." http://www.simplyshrug.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=63:the-overpopulation-myth&catid=31:general&Itemid=50)

People are speaking of Erlich’s evil.... and they are right.

The thing I don’t see, is condemnation of this False Pope, this agent of Satan.

Margaret Sanger was unavailable for this time slot so Ehrlich fills in.
