Atheist God Loosens Restraint on Chinese Parents

The atheist god called "Communist Government" has slightly loosen his grip on the emotionally strained parents that lost a child in the recent Chinese earth quakes. The one child policy of China has been clarified to tolerate an additional child in the horrific case of children killed by the May 12, 2008 disaster.

While the story catches a few headlines in the U.S., I rarely encounter anyone outraged by the "one child policy". "China's one child policy was launched in the late 1970s to control China's exploding population and ensure better education and health care" states an AP article released on May 26, 2006. The reality is Americans use similar logic to justify the use of birth-control pills, abortion, and many other means of population control, though it is not a legal restriction imposed by government.

The interesting element is the contradiction to God's Word and the privilege he entrusted us with: "Be fruitful and multiply", "fill the earth and subdue it". The Lord God commands us to reproduce; to produce godly offspring. He commands us and expects us to populate the earth with His children.

Furthermore, He is the giver of rights; not the state. Many of us Americans have bought into the ideal of micro-managing the population, rather than "being fruitful" and multiplying. I know, you have all manner of rationale. You need to save money, become more stable, plan for the future, etc...

Nonetheless, government has no right or authority to limit the number of children you have. It is not the government's right to give or take away. It belongs to God. Well, unless your an atheist. I hope you see the point...
"Religion, or a lack thereof, does impact policy".
Secular Progressives and Liberals in the U.S trend toward policies similar to China's Communist government. What side of the argument do you land on? If a majority of American's supported a limit on child-bearing, would it be Constitutional?


God Save the U.S.A.
