Imagine reading Brave New World in the early thirties, when it was written, or in the early fifties as I did.
It shook me to the core and has stayed with me ever since.
Ultimately, I believe their only defense will be "forgive us Lord, we knew not what we were doing".
I will never forget, many years ago, one of my friends invited my wife and me to dinner with him and his wife at their country club. Very chi chi, the one where the PGA majors are held.
Not unexpectedly perhaps, my friend's wife turned out to be even more "modern" than I had previously guessed.
As we finished a cocktail and picked up our salad forks, Buffy (we'll call her) launched into the story of the exciting day she had had. She had been, that very day, to a Planned Parenthood office (she was supportive of same in time and money) and had actually witnessed the most revolutionary and exciting act of her life.
She proceeded to launch into a thoroughly detailed relating of the "procedure" she had seen, ending with the quick and simple "vacuuming" of the womb.
Finally, as she paused in her excitement, to draw a breath, I had the opportunity to interject a quick question. "Buffy", I asked politely, "did the doctor then dump the little body parts out of the vacuum cleaner onto the table?"
"For heaven's sake", was Buffy's somewhat ironic response, "how disgusting, we're at dinner", she cluelessly replied.
"Sorry, Buffy, but you brought up the subject", was my short, but I hoped sufficient, reply.
The rest of the evening was a little cool, but my wife and I were already shivering.
It's like something right out of The Screwtape Letters". ;o)
I'm surprised she mentioned it in public. Most people wouldn't openly admit they do abortions or like to watch them.
This must be Planned Parenthood's latest funding raising letter for all their private donors who are population controllers, elites,racists, eugenicists and secular humanists.
Re: “Planed Parenthood has launched a campaign …….to send letters to the editor, requesting that Pope Benedict XVI reconsider his “backward views” and change his opinion on sexual morality.”
“Backward views” they say?!?!?!? What is more backward than sacrificing children to a pagan fertility god. They make a 2000 year old tradition look positively modern and progressive. These people reek of sulfur.
Oh yeah, that will win friends for PP and influence people. /sarc
Maybe buffy needs to see this:
"And, lastly, for those who want to insist that an unborn child doesn't feel anything in spite of its rudimentary nervous system, you can go to this website to see an abortion of a 10 week old embryo in progress. It is a very graphic and upsetting video, but it shows the unborn child dodging the abortion tool, writhing and actually screaming in pain. As much as some don't want to admit it, abortion is a brutal, unscriptural act.The video is at: www.silentscream.org."
I could not watch this sad video, but it would be a good wake-up call for pro-aborts. Even the description is very telling!
Prayer can shut down Planned Parenthood Clinics any where!

I humbly, humbly submit that I speak for Pope Benedict when I say, "Bring...it...on!"
what are they gonna do, demand a recount?
I think the Pope will get a good laugh out of it!:)
Exactly. Like, the leader of a 2,000 year-old institution gives a rat's ass about a bunch of so called American feminists!!
