War Against Children: Down Syndrome Genocide – 90% Killed (Part 13)

(This article is part of an ongoing series showing different adult obsessions in waging “War Against Children” by Fr. Jerry Novotny, OMI.)

Every day, throughout the world, we see the effects of hatred between people whenever we watch news on TV or open the morning newspaper. When violence breaks out, it takes place in homes, workplaces, public institutions, schools, health care facilities and on city streets. It happens in so many senseless ways and women and children are often the victims. We also see the devastating effects of violence and hatred in so many places in our world that are at war. A prime example is Ukraine. Where once there were people raising their families and making livelihoods for themselves, there is nothing but the ashes of burnt out homes and businesses. We humans can become so full of rage that we don’t care who we destroy in the process. All the destruction that takes place in this world has one source – the sin that is lurking in every human heart. We might want to point the finger at others. We might blame governments or other institutions for all the world’s misery. But, ultimately, hate and violence spring from the human heart which rejects God and His love.

Recently, not very much has been written about Down Syndrome babies. With the killing of unborn babies with Downs syndrome continues to increase at an alarming rate, it appears as if the adult generation is attempting to erase an entire category of people. Once diagnosed with Down Syndrome, the unborn child of today faces almost certain death by abortion.

A New Generation: The Senior Family

Turning 80 several years ago, I have come to accept the fact that now I am a part of the worldwide “Senior Family” generation. By 2050, the world’s population of people aged 60 years and older will double (2.1 billion). The number of persons aged 80 years or older is expected to triple between 2020 and 2050 to reach 426 million. We also know for a fact that the number of people aged 60 years and older have outnumbered children younger than 5 years. Yes, people worldwide are living longer. A new world order is being created, a generation referred to as the “Senior Family”.

Is God really Silent?

Ukrainian authorities say over 400 hundred children have been killed and many more injured since the start of Russia’s invasion nearly eight months ago. Among the many victims of the deadliest conflict since World War II are these small children for whom life has just begun.

War Against Children: World’s First “Synthetic Embryo” – ‘homo sapiens’ next? (Part 12)

(This article is part of an ongoing series showing different adult obsessions in waging “War Against Children” by by Fr. Jerry Novotny, OMI.)

When we look at the state of the world today, it is easy to get discouraged and depressed. In all areas of our life as a society – whether it is the economy, the corona pandemic, world politics or the war on children – things are not good and in general appear to be getting worse, like the senseless attacks in Ukraine by Putin and his gestapo army. I think that most people will admit that our world is more divided now than ever before. The real value and dignity of human life has been placed on the slippery slope of destruction while science and technology introduce a false future of hope for mankind, not to mention big businesses raking in money from these so-called modern advances. Just recently, we learned that Israeli scientists have created the world’s first “synthetic embryos”. This time the attack by adults focuses on pre-born children at the very beginning of their lives, ie. “synthetic embryos” grown outside of the womb without the natural process of sperm, egg and fertilization. Now the slippery slope of science begins.

War Against Children: ‘Child-friendly’ Gay Drag Shows – “child abuse” (Part 11)

(This article is part of an ongoing series showing different adult obsessions in waging “War Against Children” by Fr. Jerry Novotny, OMI.)

A recent scandal hit the news recently and highlighted a suppressed, unbelievable attack on our children by the gay community. The article “‘Child-friendly’ Drag Show at Dallas Gay Bar Prompts State Lawmaker to Act” surfaced on June 6, 2022, following a drag show for children. Immediately, Texas State Rep. Bryan Slaton announced he would present a bill that would protect children from these indecent displays. “Drag shows are no place for a child,” he said. A heroic statement but whether anything postive will surface is still a big question. Yet for this to have reached such a level of indecency, my question is why has nothing been done over the years to protect our children from this gay trend. A radio host and writer Michael Brown pointed out, that the spectacle of drag queens performing for kids (and their parents) has been common at Pride parades for almost two decades with little public outcry.

War Against Children: Freezing Live Embryos – “human or not?” (Part 10)

(This article is part of an ongoing series showing different adult obsessions in waging “War Against Children” by Fr. Jerry Novotny, OMI.)

It is so easy in life to lose sight of what’s most important. Our days are so busy that we often overlook problems facing our children both born and unborn. Take for example freezing unborn embryos. This is another obsession in waging war on Children. This procedure takes a living human person and actually freezes it. This freezing, also known commonly as solidification, is a phase transition where an unborn child turns into a solid when its temperature is lowered below its freezing point.

Is the Devil real? Putin and his Military Gestapo

The humanitarian crisis in Ukraine is deepening as Russian illegal forces intensify their shelling; food, water, heat and medicine are growing increasingly scarce. More than four million refugees, including 1.5 million children, have fled Ukraine and many more are still on the way. Russia’s advance has slowed, but the missiles are fired constantly at residential areas, as blood flows and the civilian dead population continues to increase at an alarming speed. In this article, let me share a story with you. Many years ago, in a small chapel in 1884, Pope Leo XIII was saying Mass and suddenly he heard voices near the altar. He looked around but could not see anyone, yet what he heard filled him with fear. What the Holy Father heard was a conversation between God and the devil.

Is it really possible to love our enemies?

“I know you don’t command the impossible. You know very well that never would I be able to love others as you love them, unless you, O my Jesus, loved them in me. Your will is to love in me all those you command me to love.” (Saint Therese of Lisieux). It has been only a short time now since one of the great moral voices of the world has died – Archbishop Desmond Tutu. As you know He was the first black Archbishop of Cape Town, South Africa, and worked to bring an end to the racist policy of apartheid. And when that dehumanizing system of discrimination was finally dismantled, he worked to bring forgiveness and reconciliation between the white and black populations of his country so that there could be a future of peace for all people in South Africa.

War Against Children: Child-Soldier Machines – “beautiful flowers” (Part 9)

(This article is part of an ongoing series showing different adult obsessions in waging “War Against Children” by Fr. Jerry Novotny, OMI.)

Confused Flower

“Every child is a different kind of flower and all together make this world a beautiful garden.” (by unknown) One of the most precious things that we have in this world are our children. God has created each one individually as a unique human person, a one-of-a-kind who is very precious to Him. In the beginning, God made “male and female”, wishing them to share in His creative work by saying “increase and multiply”. The result of this participation with God is children, each of whom are precious and possess a “special” talent and ability that gives life to the world. Beginning at an early age and throughout its childhood, the child needs a safe atmosphere to develop as a human being. This is a time in which children should live free from fear, safe from violence, and protected from abuse and exploitation. Children are the world’s future, and we need to take care of them like we would any precious resource.

Where is Baby Jesus?

It’s that time of the year again. Christmas. It’s been a long year -the pandemic with its new faces still with us, major military buildups across the planet, dictators suppressing human rights, waging war on children both unborn and born, trans men taking over women sports, fake news, and the list continues as I read the morning newspaper. And yes, Christmas 2021 is here, at least as a holiday. But what is missing in today’s troubled world? Simply put, Christmas is missing, Christ is missing. We celebrate Christmas without Christ. It’s like celebrating your birthday without you.
