After my post about the Pope's forthcoming letter to Chinese Catholics, a reader sent me an email with a link to the
Laogai Research Foundation. The site itself is worth a browse but the particular page that I was alerted to was a
disturbing display of photographs of slogans painted on walls in China, supporting the "One Child Policy." The photos show some of the more horrific slogans, e.g.
- Better blood flowing like a river than one extra birth.
- Abort whether early or late, abort using any method!
- Your home will be destroyed and your cows taken away if you don't abort.
There is a list of others such as:
- One sterilization honors the whole family! (Shandong Province)
- One excess birth, whole village sterilized! (Chuxiong, Yunnan Province)
- Sterilization dodgers wanted! (Sichuan Province)
The site gives information about the word "Laogai":
The Laogai was created by the Chinese Communist Party under Mao Zedong, yet it still serves the one-party dictatorship as the primary instrument for detaining political dissidents and penal criminals. The two major aims of the Laogai are to use all prisoners as a source of cheap labor for the communist regime and to "reform criminals" through hard labor and compulsory political indoctrination.
Please pray earnestly for the Catholics in China and for all people of goodwill in that wonderful country.

This was shocking reading, especially the one that said 'one extra birth whole village sterilized'. What frightens me more is that Europe is willingly heading in the same direction. With all this threat of global warming and humans being the cause of the destruction of the earth, couples are reluctant to have children one maximum two, is what we are being socially engineered to believe, is ideal. We don't need banners and writings on the wall we happily accept what our governments tell us. Society in the west is happy to abort and contracept itself out of existence, coupled with the encouragement of homosexual activity, Europe will be more successful than China - and it even appears civilised.
The slogans are only slightly more extreme than what comes out of the mouths of Roman Catholic co-workers of mine. Here, the big limit seems to be 2 children. I guess that makes it only half as evil as China.
