The most revealing paragraph in Laudato Si lamented how environmentalists are indifferent to abortion. Francis can not grasp how we often form our beliefs in order to compensate for a repressed conscience. Environmental fanaticism exists because of the myth of overpopulation used to assuage guilt over supporting the mass murder of abortion.

Maybe I'm being selfish and a part of the "throwaway culture" by not offing myself so my body parts can be harvested for others. <br /><br />Contrast Bergoglio's vague, insipid statements against abortion (always coupled with references to far lesser evils) with that of JP II early in his papacy:<br /><br />"We will stand up and declare that no one has the authority to destroy unborn human life." <br /><br /> JBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18149137656710173911noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1373152433565591514.post-29301727630940613812015-08-01T14:13:29.241-07:002015-08-01T14:13:29.241-07:00"Planned Parenthood and their bio-tech custom..."Planned Parenthood and their bio-tech customers want to recycle babies, or at least their bodies."<br /><br />Very well put. The Pope's "throwaway culture" line does not clearly oppose applying "reduce, reuse, recycle" to humans.<br /><br />Clearly, a woman thinks to assuage her conscience by signing a consent form to donate the "products of conception" to medical research that will "save lives". It is very much in Planned Parenthood's interests to frame the donation that way. One life tragically ends, but it holds the key to saving other lives... cue swelling music, camera pans up to blue sky...<br /><br />There was an outcry last year in Oregon when it came to light that a power plant was burning biomedical waste from British Columbia to generate electricity, and the waste contained miscarried and aborted babies. <br /><br />This year, we find out that scientists in every state in the union are processing aborted babies from Planned Parenthood to generate advances in medicine. Outcry is being suppressed.Tamsinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01636532242553200576noreply@blogger.com
