Have you ever heard of the Voluntary Human Extinction Movement?<\/p>\n

I would say that extinction<\/i> and movement<\/i> have a way of being mutually exclusive. If the members truly are for voluntary extinction, how can they possibly be part of any<\/i> movement?!<\/p>\n

\n
Nevertheless, consider what UPI has to report<\/a>:<\/p>\n

Make no mistake about it, the Voluntary Human Extinction Movement isn’t anti-child, it’s more like anti-human.<\/p>\n

The VHE is dedicated to phasing out the human race in the interest of the health of the Earth, founder Les Knight told Wednesday’s San Francisco Chronicle.<\/dd>\n<\/p>\n<\/dd>\n<\/dt>\n<\/dl>\n

Not very dedicated, I would say.<\/p>\n

\n
But please continue reading….<\/p>\n

With 16,000 people born per hour and a current global population of 6.5 billion, there are already more than enough people on the planet, Knight said.<\/dd>\n<\/p>\n<\/dt>\n<\/dl>\n

Not that I believe Mr. Knight should voluntarily extinctivize himself, but what’s he doing here then?<\/p>\n

\n
Oh, perhaps you’re wondering about the headline for my post.<\/p>\n

Knight, who had a vasectomy at age 25, emphasizes VHE likes kids and says many of its members are parents as well as children.<\/dd>\n<\/p>\n<\/dt>\n<\/dl>\n

Many of its members are children. Good deal. They were all born, albeit involuntarily. I don’t find that particularly unique — ever since Adam and Eve, all<\/i> humans have been children.<\/p>\n

Oh wait. I get it now. Membership in this organization is comprised of adults and non-adults.<\/p>\n

Am I mocking Mr. Knight and the organization? Perhaps, though I really don’t mean to.<\/p>\n

I hope Mr. Knight finds a better purpose for living.<\/p>\n

God’s purpose.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
