A excellent suggestion, and one that it would be good to see put into
practice, here and elsewhere.

Nevermind what kind of person Turner is, for now. Pray tell me what is
wrong with what he said as re****ted in the bit above? "Most people like
to have ***, but you can have *** without having babies". Hell, I'd wish
I could hear that more often.

I don't care about Turner in this context. I don't care whether he is a
hypocrite with a secret agenda, I don't care whether he's meaning well.
Simply look at what's written and tell me what you can find to say
against it. Is it correct or is it not?

If he's sincere, he's clearly out of phase with his class.
Overpopulation is a vital interest of capitalists and aristocrats. Too
many people means greater competition for limited jobs, hence lower
wages. Too many people mean scarcity of food, hence higher prices. Too
many people means scarcity of room, hence higher rents and mortgages.
Too many people means poverty, poverty means weakness, weakness means
easier control.

This whole campaign of associating birth-control policies with the
superrich is disgusting. It is obvious who's behind it: the religious
s*** (see article posted by Vngelis in the thread: "Massive Starvation
For World Feared Over Myanmar..."). A thoroughly hypocritical attempt to
appeal to the poor, to feed off a well-deserved sentiment of envy and
hatred towards the elite, in order to further their anti-humanist
agenda. The essence of religion is to subject your life, your
individuality, to a non-existent entity which they fortuitously have a
(state-enforced) monopoly of representing. What a coincidence!

The religious sentiment in the m***** feeds off rotten ***uality, as
created in young children by the family, with strong sup****t from
churches. At the heart of religion is ***ual life. Hence nothing puts
those who profit from religion into greater danger than people actually
having CONTROL over their ***ual life, that is controlling diseases
(syphilis, AIDS -- what dreadful time churches have had between the
time penicillin was discovered and the advent of AIDS!), controlling
when you have a child et caetera. A healthy and normal ***ual life
involves genital activity roughly a few times a week. Say two times.
This would amount to one hundred times a year, and about four thousand
times over the time in which the human body is fertile, i.e. when a
child can result. Given that women are fecund roughly one tenth of the
time, this would mean FOUR HUNDRED children in one life. That's clearly
more than even the religious s*** would advocate. What's their solution?
ABSTINENCE. Their ultima ratio. Do not have fun, do not have pleasure.
It's a sin. This is the essence of the religious program.

And that's fair enough. At least they're straight-forward about it.

But what's with Vngelis? He's posting their propaganda, repeatedly, on a
Marxist forum. What's his agenda? We don't know, for he's done nothing
but hiding behind quotes.

Audiatur et altera pars. So I ask Vngelis to please lay out before us 
all, in his own words, what his position is.

What's his position with regards to religion?

What's his position with regards to ***ual life, procreation,
contraceptives and abortion?

What's his position with regards to overpopulation? Is the Earth
overpopulated? Is it not in the interest of the people to control their
own numbers through control of births, if it serves their well-being,
their happiness?

Note that I do not separate between this program and the communist
program. Control of population is not possible within this system, for
it is contrary to the interests which drive it. So when I say "control
their own numbers", I do mean "control their own numbers in a
socialist/communist society".

Disgusting. An outlet of the globalised left Vngelis has often made a
point to bash. Justly so, in my view. But why does he speak their
tongue all of a sudden?
