A guide to the Vatican, Catholic Church and overpopulation, population policy, family planning, national security.


Why is the American press grossly under reporting on the most significant issues of our time, i.e.:

  • overpopulation as a national security threat for all nations; population growth control as a national security issue;
  • family planning as a national security issue;
  • abortion as a national security issue;
  • implications of global warming for U.S. security;
  • the implications of legalized abortion and family planning for papal authority;
  • the relationship between the pope’s demand for open U.S. borders and the fact that 90% of immigrants are Roman Catholics;
  • the implications of the current immigration level for U.S. security and American democracy;
  • the Vatican influence on the American press;
  • the Vatican takeover of the Republican Party.

Pronatalist Zealotry And Population Pressure Conflicts: How Catholics Seized Control Of U.S. Family Planning Programs by R.T. Ravenholt, M.D., MPH, Former Director, Office of Population (1966-79) of the United States Agency for International Development, chronicles his fourteen year effort to establish a population program within USAID, his eventual removal and dilution of the project.

And how ".... Right-to Life" adversaries invoked the assistance of two Roman Catholics, Congressman Clement Zablocki of the House Foreign Affairs Committee and his assistant, John H. Sullivan, to attack AID's population program...”

And how ".... another Catholic, then Deputy Administrator, John H. Murphy.... and others, created a task force for the purpose of reorganizing and thereby decapitating the Office of Population.”

And how ".... with the help of Jimmy Carter and his political appointees, religious zealots finally managed to degrade AID's population program by placing the two Federal agencies with family planning programs under Catholic control.”

Concludes with a statement by President George Bush, written while he was the U.S. Representative to the United Nations and published as the foreword to Phyllis Piotrow's book, World Population Crisis: The United States Response. This document reveals the political costs of taking a stand against the Vatican and, when seen through the lens of history, provides some insight on why Bush turned against the needs of the world and supported the Vatican during his presidency.
