Every several months I get sent a form letter from a group called Negative Population Growth. I have never signed up for such a letter, but somehow, because I oppose amnesty for illegal migrants, they think I am open to their ideas. Their form letters talk about the chaos at the borders, and other issues that are covered by more legitimate groups, but near the end of their newsletters, they allude to their agenda:
NPG stated, “For over 40 years, NPG has served as one of America’s leading grassroots organizations working for a reasonable, responsible national population policy.” That means eugenics, such as Planned Parenthood, or the Nazi Party, or the Peoples Republic of China’s one child per family limit-forced abortion policy.
Do we need to secure the integrity of our Nation? Yes, we do, and our US Constitution provides ample authority to the Federal Government to do precisely that. Our federal government’s failure doesn’t translate into support for un-American groups that exploit an issue, to promote a socialist agenda. As chaotic as the borders are, our main problems in America are two-fold; we have rejected Jesus Christ, and we have rejected the Moral Order.
I affirm that when a house is littered with crumbs, rotting food, and backed up sewage, that that house will attract pests. You clean house before you invest in a bigger, better mouse-trap. America’s house is filthy, and we have no shortage of people whose idea of freedom is “free cheese.” (Trump has the will deport the most grievous offenders, but not the illegal communities that support them. Congress has no will to deport anyone.)
America must clean house, and end government welfare, all of it. We don’t need the evolution-based socialism of the 1930s to do it. I support border security, but I support being Pro-Life even more. We must never introduce the alien idea of eugenics as the answer to securing our borders. Whenever one is confronted with a threat to our national survival, one must also ask the question, “Survive as what? As a Socialist State?” I affirm with Ben Franklin that those who trade liberty for security will get neither and deserve neither.
I affirm the liberty of the Christian family to have and raise as many children as God blesses them with, “Lo, children are an heritage of the Lord: and the fruit of the womb is his reward. As arrows in the hand of a mighty man, so are children of youth. Happy is the man that hath his quiver full of them: they shall not be ashamed, but they shall speak with the enemies in the gate.” Psalm 127:3-5.
