Creation Moment 8/18/2018 - Secret Eugenics Conference

"A news story by the London Student in early January exposed a “secret” eugenics conference held annually at University College London (UCL) since 2014. The article clearly expressed indignation over the idea that some people still advocate for state-manipulated human reproductive practices. But similar outrage over the same disregard for human life sanctioned by the Roe v. Wade (1973) decision 45 years earlier on January 22 was strikingly absent from the report.

Eugenics is the quest to improve humanity’s genetic composition. Eugenicists have advocated for various practices, such as selectively breeding “superior” people and eliminating “genetic defectives” by sterilizing, aborting, or euthanizing “inferiors.”


Darwinism is predicated on death eliminating “unfit” members from populations of creatures struggling to survive. A leading proponent of eugenics, during its heyday in 1927, affirmed that Darwinian selection is the root of all eugenics practices. He said,
In my own mind and in a growing number of other minds…unless civilisation can find a method of doing for itself what Natural Selection did for man during his ascent—insuring that he shall breed only from his best. The study of how it is possible forms the subject matter of what we now term the Science of Eugenics. We have to replace the ruthless action of Natural Selection by reasoned conduct in civilised man.”
In the United States, that selection-based “reasoned conduct” resulted in 31 states passing barbaric eugenics laws where over 70,000 citizens were forcibly sterilized.
I will praise thee; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made: marvellous are thy works; and that my soul knoweth right well.
Psalm 139:14
