The following comes from a Dec. 2013 story on Zenit.com.
When Melinda Gates, a Catholic, announced the beginning of her grand initiative in 2012 to commit millions of dollars to support the spread of hormonal contraceptive use in Africa she claimed there was “no controversy” because her work would not advocate for abortion, and because contraceptive use should not be considered controversial. Yet only a year later she is leading the charge for legalized abortion in Africa. The International Conference on Family Planning offered at least six presentations that promoted abortion with titles like “Integrating Efforts to Improve Access to Safe Abortion with Expanding Access to Family Planning” and “Saving Lives and Respecting Rights Through Implementation of the WHO Safe Abortion”.
Ms. Gates states her motivation for these efforts is to reverse the tragically high maternal mortality rate of African women — a noble goal. Yet utilizing contraception and abortion to combat deaths during pregnancy is akin to using starvation to fight obesity. Such a superficial approach ignores the root causes of maternal mortality such as the lack of properly equipped health care facilities, skilled health care providers, proper nutrition, clean water, and educational opportunities….
The misguided efforts of Melinda Gates and her associates to flood Africa with injectable hormonal contraception also carry grave health risks for African women. The Gates Foundation actually funded a study by the University of Washington that found contraception doubled the transmission rates of HIV. It makes no sense to introduce this increased risk of HIV infection in an area already plagued by AIDS and with inadequate medical infrastructure to support the subsequent need for increased testing and treatment.
Similarly, numerous studies have linked both hormonal contraception and abortion to an increased risk of breast cancer. A 2012 study by the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center found that the very contraception that Melinda Gates is pushing is associated with a doubling of the risk for invasive and aggressive breast cancer in young women. A meta-analysis of Chinese data just published in the journal Cancers Causes & Control found a significant link between breast cancer and abortion. There was a 44% increase in breast cancer risk after a single abortion….

The Gates’ house lies on the east shore of Lake Washington in the town of Medina, Washington in the Diocese of Seattle. Milinda Gates advertises herself as “Catholic”. Her Diocese Bishop may be Archbishop J. Peter Sartain .
What is being done by her Bishop regarding – Canon 915 & Canon 1399, not only to get her attention and correct her, but attempting to stop the murdering and Souls lost due to the mortal sin of her scandal ?
Murdering the innocent for the convenience of others is an abomination.

When there is no correction by a Bishop and/or Priest, he aids and abets in the (public) sins of others.
Contraception is a mortal sin. Abortion is a mortal sin.
CCC: ” 1868 Sin is a personal act. Moreover, we have a responsibility for the sins committed by others when we cooperate in them:
– by participating directly and voluntarily in them;
– by ordering, advising, praising, or approving them;
– by not disclosing or not hindering them when we have an obligation to do so;
– by protecting evil-doers. “
Planned Parenthood was also founded to reduce Black proliferation. Mrs. Gates continues in this long line of American eugenic racists. The Culture of Death marches on. Bill and Melinda Gates should worry than in future their own children do not propose them for euthanasia just to get their inheritance. It is all part of the efforts to terminate Western Culture. Melinda Gates will succeed in giving breast cancer and thromboses to millions of perfectly happy African ladies but she probably is convinced she knows better. However, Melinda Gates’ sole qualification is that she earned her fortune in the same place so many others before her did.
Melinda Gates seems to think the problem with Africa is children. I really dislike it when rich people tell the poor not to reproduce. Having babies is exclusively for the wealthy. Is she going to personally monitor these abortion clinics to ensure they are clean and antiseptic?
The following is from the Magnificat Maternal Health Program website:
“In June 2011, the Magnificat Maternal Health Program (MMHP) was formed to improve maternal health care in rural Idah, Nigeria, a region which lacks many basic medical resources and subsequently has one of the highest incidences of maternal and newborn deaths in the country.” https://www.mmhp.org
Wouldn’t it be amazing if Malinda Gates showed up with her smiling face and a big fat check at this maternal health care facility?!!! But then again since MMHP actually assists women to safely birth their children into the world, this might go against Mrs. Gates core principles. It never hurts to ask though :)
Between the “benevolence” of CINO Mrs. Gates (abortion and contraception) and Mr. Gates (the imposition of Common Core in our government AND Catholic schools), we’ll have little population to worry about and those children who do survive will only be qualified as drones in the workplace. Of course, they’ll all have Apple iPads, so they won’t have to worry about multiplication tables and Catholic prayers clouding their little brains (it also qualifies them to also be politicians if they know how to take orders).
The bishops doing anything about these people? They only seem to move against those who aren’t liberal and go to Mass.
Bob, how right you are! “…….and those children who do survive will only be qualified as drones in the workplace.”
I think that this has been the purpose of compulsory education all along! Now I know why we had to play that “Simon Says” game in kindergarten when we were young. We were being taught how to FOLLOW and OBEY the leader! History says that a powerful Roman politician invented that game!
