THE URI'S DESIRE, as stated in its Charter -- to "manifest love and justice among all life in our Earth community" -- does not extend to the lives of the unborn. Bishop Swing has likened "the insane expansion of population" to exponential growth of algae in a lake. In 2000, two high-level URI executives - Canon Charles Gibbs, URI Executive Director, and the Rev. William Rankin, an Episcopal cleric who was then the URI Vice-President - signed a manifesto issued early that year by the Sexual Information and Education Council of the US (SIECUS). This "Religious Declaration on Sexual Morality, Justice, and Healing" opposed "unsustainable population growth" and favored "blessing...same-sex unions," the ordination of women, artificial contraception, abortion, and "lifelong, age appropriate sexuality education in schools, seminaries, and community settings."

THAT is laughably absurd. Apparently, they are rather woefully unfamiliar with current research on population trends within Western civilization. Just about ALL of the major countries will be unable to take care of the elderly because of a failure to reproduce in adequate numbers. Foreign populations will have to be imported just to sustain social and economic stability. What utter morons!!! A truly amazing display of sheer stupidity. Thr irony of course is that Anglicans and Episcopalians have been exterminating themselves in one of the most absurd cases of self-genocide in human history.

...have been exterminating themselves in one of the most absurd cases of self-genocide in human history.

Western civilization only has to take this insane self-genocide far enough for the ROT (Religion Of Terror) to step in and add the finishing touches.

Human civilization had better wake up fast and get as serious about its survival as the seventh-century savages are about our annihilation!
