uggeridge says killing unborn.
babies doesn't feed thehungry
The,Ooderich Pro Life Group
'nd other interested people
ho travelled t9 London to
hear Malcolm Muggeridge last
creek were not disappointed.
Muggeridge spoke out strongly
against abortion ands stated
that in his : view, the introduce,
ticn of legalized abortion only
serves to `put the thought of
resorting to an -abortion into
the mind of a pregnant woman.
Mr, Muggeridge said that
legalizing abortion does not
eliminate illegal abortions.
"Dowe want,,scientific minds
to control the two points in our
lives, 'life and death?" he
asked, referring, ,to his 'belief
that,euthanasia follows closely-
on the heels of legalized abor-
tion. d
Mr, Muggeridge spoke about
the heart transplants' perfor-
med in South ' Africa by Dr.
Christian Barnard. Through'
this, Mr. Muggeridge said,
people became aware of the
shortage of "spare parts''- for
such surgery._
• Mr. JsMuggeridge said he
asked Dr. Barnard why he
thought the first heart tran-
splant had taken place in South
Africa. Was it because of the.
skill of the doctors 'and the
specialized equipment .there?
Or was the experiment perfor-
med in a place where, life is
devalued? .
According to Mr.
Muggeridge, where moral
valuesare wrong, there is soon
another wrong and life becomes
valueless.
Fie charged that the media is
generally on the' side of abor-
titf`n and presents a world of
fantasy.
Mr. Muggeridge said that
hunger and what is .termed
overpopulation could be han-
dled is therewas more
generosity in the hearts of men.
H;e spoke about Mother
Theresa entitled "Something
Beautiful for God".,
Mother Theresa who lives in
Calcutta, picks babies out of
dustbins and cares for them.
She also. helps the old and
dying.
"What can we do about hunger ' concluded. "Maintaining a
standard Qf living is essential
to us. The more we produce,
the., r°nore we consume. Toa•, sav
there is famine in Africa
because of the, „number of
people there is insanity. The,
crisis Qf shortage of food is the.
abandonment of Western man
of the basics of faith and ethics
of his religion.
M. Muggeridge called
Women's- Lib "a- sinister and,
unhappy development of our
' times". .He said women are
reluctant to have babies .and
have "alYdicated this privilege
and •abdicated .their purpose -
the. fatally, the dignity and the
- glory"

half will he led." ,
"T,his is' a deliberate
avoi lance of the actual
question," Mr. Mt1'ggeridge
and overpopulation?" asked
Mr. Muggeridge' ''There has to
be a way of looking -at life.
These Tare not, separaUe
problems. Men are tfollowing
false purposes and are attrac-
ted to material things. There
are not too many people in In-
dia but too little generosity in
the hearts of men."
"There is a means to produce
food- through man's ingenuity,
but they have lost faith in.God,
in His destine," said Mr.
Muggeridge,"In the '20th Cen-
tury, ,with new discoveries and
sending men to the moon, man
is .sitting snivelling. there are
too many people.':
"If you kill half the unborn
babies in Canada, ,,,it will not
mean the people in India will
be fed," said Mr. Muggeridge.

Trko, Miller for ou.r April fi th
program
Dr. Miller, who, last- month
discussed "Competition in
..Kids"; will now move the focus
to the other side of the spec-
trum and, consider the ..,subject
of "Creative Parenting' z4.
Many parents are' unable to
see their children as individual
human beings and too often the'
phrase, "Oh, they're just
children", covers up a chance
to see a child as such. For
example, have you ever thought
of the' right you had to go up tto
a .child and suddenly turn into
a gushing fountain of sentiment
in extolling ihre 'child's
cuteness?
You would not expect this of
another person who came up to
you for the first time .and ap-
proached you in such a manner.
Your reaction would' probably
be anger and embarrassment.°At
child feels. the same way.
Come out to the program and
learn that there is another per-
' son in a parent-child relation-
