I don’t know what is more scary–the fact I got this brochure at the Spokompton Fair–or the fact there were many enthusiastic people staffing their booth. Produced by Heritage House, I find the contents ignorant, and. . . Well, let’s just leave it at ignorant.
On the Front:
“Planned Parent Hood (sic) It’s not what you think” picture of a snake on a bouquet of pink flowers. “Lantana. The beauty of this flower is known for attracting children, but then it causes poisoning and death when eaten.”
Quotes w/in:
“It’s all about abortion.”
-“First and foremost Planned Parenthood is all about aborting children.”
-“Abortions were performed 98.6% of the time.”
“It’s all about Money.”
-“As a non-for-profit. . . 34% of this billion dollars came from you, the taxpayer.”
-“Income from abortions total in the $190,000,000 range.”
“It’s all about Sex.”
-“You teen can view informative videos showing how to put on a condom!”
-“A lot of teens choose to skip intercourse and practice outercourse instead, which can include kissing and body rubbing.”
“It’s all about Deception.”
-“Every year, nearly 25,000 affiliate volunteers and staff provide sexual and reproductive health care, education, and information to nearly 5 million women, men, and teens in the U.S.!”
Gasp! Providing information and health care?! Unbelievable. I won’t even justify this mis-information and scare-tactics with any response. You can look at higher, legitimate sources–cited and substantiated, of course–for yourself and come to your own conclusions. My thoughts–education can never, never be a bad thing.
Catty Remarks
