has launched a protest against Hobby Lobby for it's commitment to life.
Hobby Lobby, which operates more than 500 stores in 41 states, says providing the mandated ObamaCare coverage for "morning-after" abortion drugs violates its Christian owners' "deeply held religious beliefs." So, the company has sought relief in the courts. The company's attorney, Kyle Duncan with the Beckett Fund for Religious Liberty, says the lawsuit has nothing to do with the issue of birth control -- but rather the requirement that employers must pay for abortion-inducing drugs. "We basically want to push back against the notion that this is about birth control. It's really not," says Duncan. "Hobby Lobby is not trying to control their employees' lives. All Hobby Lobby is trying to say is 'Please leave us out of providing these kind of drugs that our faith tells us is the wrong thing to do."'

The Origin of PP's Genocide
At the beginning of the 20th century, Eugenics
was perhaps the most revolutionary of the pseudo-sciences spawned by the
wild-eyed vision of Scientism—the almost religious belief that somehow science
could solve all the problems of humanity.
Having convinced an entire generation of scientists, intellectuals, and
social reformers that the world was facing an imminent economic crisis caused
by unchecked human fertility, the followers of Malthusianism quickly turned
their attentions to practical programs and social policies.
Some of these managerial Malthusians believed that the
solution to the immanent crisis was political: restrict immigration, reform
social welfare, and tighten citizenship requirements. Others thought the solution was technological: increase
agricultural production, improve medical proficiency, and promote industrial
efficiency. But many of the rest
felt that the solution was genetic: restrict or eliminate “bad racial stocks,”
and gradually “help to engineer the evolutionary ascent of man.”
This last group became the adherents of a malevolent new
voodoo-science called Eugenics.
They quickly became the most influential and powerful of all the
insurgent ideologists striving to rule the affairs of men and nations. In fact, for the rest of the 20th
century they would unleash one plague after another—a whole plethora of
designer disasters—upon the unsuspecting human race.
The Eugenicists unashamedly espoused an elitist White
Supremacy. Or to be more precise,
they espoused an elitist Northern and Western European White Supremacy. It was not a supremacy based on the
crass ethnic racism of the past but upon a new kind of “scientific” elitism
deemed necessary to preserve “the best of the human race” in the face of
impending doom. It was a very
refined sort of supremacy that prided itself on rationalism, intellectualism,
and progressivism.
This racial supremacy they believed had to be promoted both
positively and negatively. Through
selective breeding, the Eugenicists hoped to purify the blood lines and improve
the stock of the “superior” Aryan race.
The “fit” would be encouraged to reproduce prolifically. This was the positive side of
Malthusian Eugenics.
Negative Malthusian Eugenics on the other hand, sought to
contain the “inferior” races through segregation, sterilization, birth control,
and abortion. The “unfit” would
thus be slowly winnowed out of the population as chaff is from wheat. By the first two decades of this
century, according to feminist author Germaine Greer, “The relevance of Eugenic
considerations was accepted by all shades of liberal and radical opinion, as
well as by many conservatives.”
Some forty states had enacted restrictive containment
measures and established Eugenic asylums.
Eugenics departments were endowed at many of the most prestigious
universities in the world including Harvard, Princeton, Columbia, and
Stanford. Funding for Eugenic
research was provided by the Rockefeller, Ford, and Carnegie Foundations. And Eugenic ideas were given free reign
in the literature, theater, music, and press of the day.
Ideas have consequences. When the ideas of Christianity were
replaced in our society by the ideas of Scientism, it was inevitable that
calamities would result—thus, the horrors of the Jewish Holocaust, the Abortion
Pandemic, and Planned Parenthood's Ethnic Genocide.

Chesterton on Eugenics
"The wisest thing in the world is to cry out before you are hurt. It is no good to cry out after you are hurt; especially after you are mortally hurt. People talk about the impatience of the populace; but sound historians know that most tyrannies have been possible because men moved too late. It is often essential to resist a tyranny before it exists. It is no answer to say, with a distant optimism, that the scheme is only in the air. A blow from a hatchet can only be parried while it is in the air. There exists to-day a scheme of action, a school of thought, as collective and unmistakable as any of those by whose grouping alone we can make any outline of history. It is as firm a fact as the Oxford Movement, or the Puritans of the Long Parliament; or the Jansenists; or the Jesuits. It is a thing that can be pointed out; it is a thing that can be discussed; and it is a thing that can still be destroyed. It is called for convenience "Eugenics;"
and that it ought to be destroyed I propose to prove." G.K. Chesterton
