No, no racism here

Damien Thompson quit his post as editor of the UKCatholic Herald because "the new owners” and he “do not agree on the future direction of the company.”

Satireblog EcclesIsSaved writes about it here.

Following a take-over of the Sovereign Order of the Catholic Herald, its Grandmaster-in-chief, Fra' Damian Thompson, has quit his position because of "a difference of opinion".

Commentators have been asking whether the "blood-crazed ferret" has been biting the bishops of England and Wales too hard, in view of his criticism of their lordships' response to the decision of hanging judge Mrs Justice "Blood! Cut! Sever! Aagh!" Lieven to force a woman to abort her baby (a decision now overturned).

Fra' Thompson's "In some ways, possibly, well, one might argue, without making too much of this, that the bishops' response to the court decision was less than it might have been had it been more than it was" was itself a watered-down version of what he originally wrote, namely, "Ye brood of vipers, who hath shewed you to flee from the wrath to come?"

Now that he is a free man and doesn't have to kiss the tushes of the powerful be subtle, he gives his opinions to Raymon Arroyo in an interview.

hmmm... I didn't realize that the moderately mentally disabled woman in a court case where a pro abortion judge agreed with a social worker she should be forcibly aborted was a Nigerian... makes you wonder if racism or eugenic thinking was influencing the decision. Note that her mother, a midwife, was willing to adopt/care for the child...

but the best part of the interview starts at 10 minutes, discussing the Amazon synod. Put down coffee and read it (Brits can be sooo wonderfully snotty). and calls it a "PC Disney production... Avatar written by octagenarian European socialists..."
and goes on to mention their wishywashy condemnation of the traditional infanticide by some tribes because they don't want to change their culture.

This is, by the way, nonsense:

among the Shona tribe in southern Africa, traditionally twins were killed, usually by the grandmother, because due to lack of milk, tribal knowledge knew that these twins would lose weight and die slowly (and losing weight and dying this way was a sign they were bewitched, so better to kill the bewitched children before the spell affected others, was the belief).

But you know what? As soon as the missionaries set up schools and clinics, and there were ways to supply formula to the moms, such killing stopped. I met only one lady who said this had happened to her children (probably in the late 1940s), and it made her so upset that she left her husband and went back to her family.

GetReligion blog has a similar story, this one from the Amazon, where tribal elders ordered a child killed, but it was saved by some Protestant missionaries.

but there is more to the story, from the UKTelegraph: The ironic part of this story? when the tribal elders ordered the murder, the parents killed themselves rather than kill their child.

Attempts to change tribal attitudes and counter official indifference are being led by a Brazilian couple, Marcia and Edson Suzuki. They have worked with one tribe, the Suruwaha, for 20 years. Mr Suzuki, the founder of a campaign group called Atini - Voice for Life - said: "We are fighting against doctors and anthropologists who say we must not interfere with the culture of the people."

Such attitudes are exemplified by Dr Erwin Frank, an anthropology professor at the Federal University of Roraima State in the Amazon. Speaking of the tribes, he said: "This is their way of life and we should not judge them on the basis of our values. The difference between the cultures should be respected."

Like other tribes, the Suruwahá considers that if a child has any deformity or disability, it does not have a soul and so - as an animal - should be killed. ...

The Suzukis recounted the harrowing story of one girl, Hakani, who they saved from death and adopted. Born in 1995, Hakani - which means Smile - was still unable to walk or talk by the age of two, prompting tribal leaders to conclude she had no soul and to order her parents to kill her. They committed suicide - eating a poison root - rather than obey the order.

Why do anthropologists assume that these "tribal customs" are holy and not to be interfered with? Remember, the tribes of the Amazon once had sophisticated farming and fishing culture, but died from European diseases a couple years ago.

When there was dire poverty, maybe such children should have been killed since food was very short and they could not support themselves, but now there is an alternative for such children, so there is no excuse: Especially when (like my patient, or like Hakani's parents) they wanted their children to live.

I suspect because the anthropologists and other experts don't see these Indians as human beings, but only as specimens to be kept untouched in a cage

I was aware of the measles vaccine to help them push an agenda to confirm their private vices/, not to mention using them for experimental subjects for a new measles vaccine (reminds me of the Denguvex scandal here: the anti vaxxers are nuts, but there is a reason behind their madness).

Wikipedia page on the book Darkness in ElDorado has details on the sexual exploitation of the tribe: HERE. and HERE.
or you can read the rant by that modern Jeramiah, Ann Barnhardt, about why the pedophiles in the Vatican love them.

or you can just watch the film:






And they are allowing self selected tyrants to terrorize those who have no power to say no, and pretending that the powerless agree with these self proclaimed tyrants.

One does not need to be a Marxist SJW to see the power differential makes the entire argument that the "tribal custom" means the decision of a tyrant to boss people around, especially when there are alternatives for such children and parents.
