The Curse

 From a Malthusian's perspective, life is not precious, it is a curse. Children are not precious they are poison.

Much of the progressive movement, both directly and indirectly, is influenced by Malthusianism. 

Malthusianism is the idea that population growth is potentially exponential while the growth of the food supply or other resources is linear, which eventually reduces living standards to the point of triggering a population die off. 

 When you stand squarely on one side of a belief, it is always difficult to "see the other side." It is not just a matter of being "open minded" it is a matter of conviction, and with conviction comes certainty. It is difficult for a believer in the sanctity of life to understand that there could be any moral or even logical underpinning to those who do not. If, however, you take your own faith and convictions and subscribe that to the opposing view, the conflict is understandable. Malthusian progressives "believe" in the logic, and moral certainty of their views as much as we who oppose them believe in ours. 

The primary, and to me, fundamental difference is that the sanctity of life is the fountain from which human progress flows, whereas the Malthusian fear of life leads to only darkness and human suffering. Once accepted, much of what traditionalist, of whatever political affiliation, see as mere cultural or policy  differences with Malthusian progressives are in reality a matter of actual survival.

It goes without saying that abortion is not only championed by the Malthusian progressives, it is an article of  that faith. Abortion is to them what childbirth is to us. The means by which the human race continues. For them it must be limited even reversed while for us, at minimum, it must be maintained. Both sides believe that their view is that which will enable the future of humankind.

Consider the "gender" controversy, whatever you may think of the progressive's infatuation with creating and then dividing us by gender, the net affect of the indoctrination is the reduction of human procreation. Put simply, gays cannot procreate, and this has nothing to do with parenting, it is a simple matter of biology. I personally have no objection to loving grounded lifestyles. However it appears the current  purpose of the progressives is to create a new definition for what is a biological reality and to transform humanity into genderless, passionless automatons. Identifying as the opposite sex is not only accepted but encouraged among the most vulnerable, our youth. Carried forward this leads to many dangerous side affects, not the least of which can by sterility. At least in the name of affirmation, we confuse and stunt the normal process towards maturity.  This Brave New Genderless World can only end with the reduction of the the human species. 

The entire "Climate Change" charade is a direct result of a Malthusian fear of human progress and an increased human population on planet Earth. Much of the propaganda surrounding this myth of climate change is meant to portray humanity as a virus on Holy Planet Earth. It portrays humans as a virus that must be mitigated in order to "save the planet." One of the most disgusting anti-human advertisements I remember was a cartoon depicting squadrons of storks flying and dropping babies like bombs from airplanes destroying the forest and fields below. Human children were destroying the world.

The examples of anti-human propaganda, indoctrination, and policies are everywhere in our culture. Is it any wonder that suicide rates are at an all time high. Of course not, in fact assisted suicide is now the new "in thing." We are not talking about just the terminally ill, in Canada it is now permissible for the mentally ill and even children to ask a doctor for suicide drugs. Assisted suicide is the new abortion with the consent of the aborted. 

All of this is the direct result of a Malthusian progressivism which seeks to cull the planet of the undesirable, which of course does not include them. This is the curse, not the human race, which now stalks the globe. This is the evil which must be eradicated from our society and it can only happen by recognizing it and calling it out for what it truly is.
