Anti-life and family values on the rise
Last week, the Catholic Church of Ibadan Ecclesiastical
Province hosted an international Pro-Life and Pro Family Conference at Ibadan . The final
communiqué of the conference noted that a creeping culture of death, as opposed
to the culture of life, is encroaching on life around us. With advancement in
technology, it spreads like fire in the harmattan. It aims to dethrone God and
enthrone science; and make the absurdity, which a powerful minority wants, to
become the morally acceptable. If we take the line of thought of the great
Saint John Paul II “As the family goes, so goes the nation and so goes the
whole world in which we live”, we might just find our society standing on the
death row right now.
In our contemporary times, the culture of death is becoming
more worrisome because many structures and Institutions which ordinarily are
meant to support life are fast placing themselves at the service of a lobby
that promotes and encourages death. For example, some advocates of abortion in
the United Nations use obscure U.N. commissions to attempt to wrestle vague,
but poisonous language into international resolutions. U.N. agencies develop
curriculum for children promoting abortion. Some donor countries, billionaires,
Foundations and U.N. agencies fund abortion under the guise of “sexual and
reproductive health Rights” to work within developing countries and at the U.N.
Government grants are given to Non-Government Organizations to train health
care providers in “values clarification” to weaken the respect for the dignity
of unborn children as persons. Billions of dollars are spent influencing the
laws of different Nations and their cultures in order to create an anti-life
agenda..
