Thinking about the Culture of Death and where it came from:
Eugenics and abortion is about the tyranny of the elite deciding who shall live and who shall die. And if it’s about the elite, it’s about money. It was the Rockefellers and the Carnegies and other capitalist lords who funded eugenics research in the early 20th century. They went on to be major supporters of Planned Parenthood. Chesterton says that wealth, and the social science supported by wealth tries inhuman experiments, and when they fail, they try even more inhuman experiments. They are inhuman because they are godless. But they are godless because they don’t want to face how inhuman they are. The wealthy industrialist became agnostic, says Chesterton, “not so much because he did not know where he was, as because he wanted to forget. Many of the rich took to scepticism exactly as the poor took to drink; because it was a way out.” – Dale Ahlquist
Death is the way out – and now we have “death with dignity”. As if death was ever actually undignified. Well, to the Culture of Death, natural death is undignified or, at least, unscientific. Much better to abort at one end and present the hemlock at the other. Thus we can be, as the Liar promised, as gods – pretending that we are ruling ourselves when we are actually abdicating our authority and surrendering ourselves to slavery.
Beware the man who has done wrong and refuses to admit it, especially those men who have piled up wealth and feel guilty about how they did it (George Soros, call your office) – confession is good for the soul, not least in that it prevents a person from merely going from bad to worse sins.
