Why is abortion ignored by genocide studies?

Recognizing abortion as a modern genocide.
The U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum surely qualifies as one of the world's best resources on genocide studies. The museum concerns itself not only with the Holocaust of World War II, but also with other modern genocides, such as those in Bosnia, Cambodia and elsewhere. Currently, the museum website presents a big feature on "The World's Refugee Crisis" involving Syrian refugees.  

How can it be then, that I search the museum website in vain for even a single reference to the worst mass killing of all time: the continuing loss of human life through abortion? How is it possible that the museum website provides the audio of lectures such as "How Might Another Holocaust Be Prevented?", paradoxically in complete ignorance of the holocaust of unborn children that is happening at this very moment?

This strange omission is not unique to the Holocaust Museum. Indeed, abortion is the shocking blind spot of the entire international community of justice seekers, truth defenders and human rights activists, which includes innumerable organizations including Amnesty International and other human rights groups. 

How can it be explained that this very community, filled as they are with zeal for preventing and ending genocides and mass atrocities around the world, has not noticed the ongoing murder of over 57 million unborn human beings in the United States alone (since Roe v. Wade)? 

This incredible and catastrophic ignorance surely begs for some kind of explanation. One day, answers will also be demanded by incredulous future generations.

End of tolerance in Ontario: Schools can force kids to learn gender ideology

Ontario sex education curriculum harms democracy

New immigrants to Ontario may have thought they were coming to the land of milk, honey, multiculturalism and tolerance. But they are experiencing a great disillusionment. They may have escaped tyranny in their home countries, but they have only jumped from the frying pan into a growing new fire.

Here in Ontario, we are witnessing the end of real tolerance. Earlier this month, Ontario Education Minister Liz Sandals made it clear that the Ontario government will allow school boards to mandate that children attend portions of the new sex-ed curriculum.

Gotta give it to Sandals, this is a smart PR decision. It makes the province look benevolent - they wash their hands of the dirty work. It will be the local school boards, not the Wynne government, who forces kids to sit through the gender ideology propaganda. Wynne can claim innocence when the election rolls around, and even blame the parents - "if you don't like what your school board is doing, take it up with your trustees".

Meanwhile, the bureaucratic juggernaut of the school boards is already rolling forward the hardline. In Mississauga, the Peel District School Board  Director of Education recently gave a speech where he put it this way:

Scandalous Sabotage: Canadian Bishops vs. the Pro-Life Movement, Part 2

In my original post on August 31, I discussed the letter that Canadian pro-life veteran Steve Jalsevac of LifeSiteNews wrote to blogger Vox Cantoris, which contained serious and disturbing allegations about the decades-long intentional sabotage of the pro-life movement by the Canadian Conference of Catholic Bishops (CCCB).

It has come to my attention that Jalsevac has now written a second letter which has also been published by Vox Cantoris. This second letter is just as important as the first. It provides further shocking information, especially about more recent events, and deserves to be widely read by Canadian Catholics who seek to better understand the pro-life struggle in Canada and why so little has been achieved over the years.

Lesbian sues for being impregnated with black sperm

This kind of thing is no longer shocking. A white lesbian sued her sperm bank for $50,000 after being accidentally impregnated with the sperm of an African American man.

The lesbian gave birth to a healthy daughter (now 3 years old), but apparently the mixed race of this little child causes her mother untold stresses and suffering, such as having to travel for a decent haircut "to a black neighborhood, far from where she lives, where she is obviously different in appearance, and not overtly welcome.”

Notice that the lesbian sought damages for "breach of warranty." Surprising? Hardly. In the brave new world of human reproduction, unborn human beings have the status of mere commodities. They have become just another product to be assembled to specifications at your local fertility clinic or online sperm/egg retailer. Babies are now sold as lifestyle accessories.

Catholic bishops complicit in scandalous sabotage of the pro-life cause in Canada

How much did we do to protect your unborn life?
Has the Catholic Church in Canada been knowingly sabotaging the efforts of the pro-life movement and cozying up to political leaders who support abortion? According to Steve Jalsevac's brief history of the Canadian pro-life movement, as posted by blogger Vox Cantoris last week, the shocking answer is yes.

Steve Jalsevac knows what he is talking about. One of the founders of North America's most widely read pro-life news source LifeSiteNews, he spent decades in leadership positions within the Canadian pro-life movement. As historic events unfolded, his vantage point was often the epicentre.

Last week, Jalsevac sent a private email to Vox Cantoris which was later made public upon his consent. His email makes for disturbing reading. Jalsevac accuses individual bishops and the whole Canadian Conference of Catholic Bishops (CCCB), of "deliberate undermining" of the work of Canadian pro-lifers. Jalsevac calls this "one of the great scandals in the Church in Canada."
