WIDELY promoted as a generous philanthropist, Bill Gates claimed as a great advance for humanity in a recent ABC TV 7.30 interview that millions of the world’s children who previously starved to death (or would have) are now saved.
Even if this were true, the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation is a major contributor, I believe, to institutions such as International Planned Parenthood (by far the largest global abortion providers).
What we do know is that the world has sat back and given its approval to and often applauded the slaughter of millions of unborn children every year, with massive funding going to promote this in some countries.
By playing God in this way, the present solution to starvation seems to include never allowing these untold millions to be born – and causing irreparable, often latent, harm and suppressed grief to their mothers and families.
So, are such foundations and other “charitable organisations” truly philanthropic, or do we just kid ourselves?
There is no seamless garment or cafeteria approach.
Until the rights of the unborn child are properly established and respected in our society, our outlook will be skewed.
Lord, that we may see. And then act.
Lord, have mercy on us.
