GOD vs.
THE GOVERNMENT…
Dear Colleen,
Having just read your
article, (front page) I am, as a parent, horrified, frustrated
and disgusted to think that local agencies and official government
employees are allowed to administer such an extremely aggressive
form of contraception as the infamous ‘morning-after-pill' without
parental knowledge or permission, God forbid that something
serious should occur as a result of this practise, either now
or later in life for these young girls, just who would stand
accountable for this?. |
|
I have noted that the only schools that are not
participating, and/or encouraging the handing out of this type
of radical treatment are St Cuthbert Mayne and also Torquay Grammar,
both very well respected schools. |
| And
for good reason, moral and ethical not fiscal, I do believe
that there are higher laws and theological beliefs that must
always be put before any Government directives and ‘NO' I'm
not a stereotypical ‘happy-clappy-do-gooder' but I do have a
good and healthy belief in religion and family values and find
this practise to be insulting and hypercritical, in an enlightened
age when we, as a society, can find GM food so abhorrent and
have such protocols of reverence in how we treat our dead, yet
still we give little or no compassion to the very beginnings
of human life. I do believe that time & history will look
back at this practise and consider it to be barbaric and verging
on the limits of selective breeding.

Dear Brixham Churches
& members, please can you help !!!!!!
Please read above my response to the
front-page article, 'teen pregnancy' dated 28/05/07..... I was
horrified to learn of the intention to promote and encourage
the handing out of the morning after pill to teenage girls across
the Bay as a form of extremely aggressive contraception. I am
not an overly religious man, but on this subject I have very
clear and definite views . Having been in the thick-of-it for
the past few months and trying my level best to draw attention
to this practise I would appreciate any support from you and
your members, letters of response such as ours would be a great
help, I cannot believe that we are the only family here in Torbay
that see's this as a wrongful directive and an offence to the
whole ethos of family values.
Kindest regards.........
Kevin and family |
