Highly disturbing....I am most uncomfortable with this....I do not attribute to human beings, governments, or business corporations virtues they do not possess. The HISTORY of Earth is nothing but one LONG STORY of the abuse and misuse of power.
No matter what "packaging" they wrap their arguments in, all we have to do is observe the PRESENT condition OF ALL LIFE UPON MOTHER EARTH TODAY....THE PATHETIC LIVING CONDITIONS OF MILLIONS OF MEN, WOMEN AND CHILDREN, ALIVE ON EARTH AT THIS VERY MINUTE.
I ask you, with all of the scientific advancements we have made, are we RIGHT NOW SINCERELY APPLYING OURSELVES TO ALLEVIATING THE MASSIVE POVERTY AND SUFFERING THAT EXISTS TODAY ALL OVER THE EARTH?
One example that quickly comes to mind would be the marvelous scientific invention/discovery of the BIRTH CONTROL PILL.
Have the governments of the world, the "authorities", THOSE WHO CONTROL OUR $$$$$ RESOURCES, AND HOLD OFFICIAL POSITIONS OF POWER, WHY HAVE THEY NOT OFFERED THE BIRTH CONTROL PILL to millions of women who desperately need and want it? Why are they continuing policies that are destroying our planet's environment? Squandering our resources?
I remember all of the talk that went around when I was a child, all of the soothing promises that were made about the "atom" being developed and used for peaceful purposes.....well it has MAINLY been scientifically "researched" and "developed" FOR KILLING.....FOR WAR.....Today we have weapons that can and and will within a few minutes destroy our planet and leave Mother Earth a radioactive RUIN....a dead planet. (And we have religious crazies, who actually believe it would be to THE GLORY OF THEIR GOD to use such weapons against their fellow human beings.)
I believe we have been and are being deceived and lied to and manipulated....and this push for eugenics will be MORE OF THE SAME. They think they can pass this off as "science for the benefit of babies"? Well I believe they have a responsibility to use the science we already have for the health, education, future of the BABIES AND CHILDREN WHO ARE ALIVE RIGHT NOW ON EARTH
