IVF children have no right to see their fathers

MPs scrap IVF children’s ‘right to father’
By Gerri Peev, political correspondent
THE right to a father for children born after fertility treatment was dramatically dropped by MPs last night, after hours of impassioned debate in the Commons.
The government won its case for scrapping the requirement for IVF clinics to consider a woman’s access to a father for a potential child….(Full Story)
___________________
Comment by F4L: A potential child? Regardless of that illogical consideration, this atrocious piece of legislation violates not only the right of children but also the rights of all fathers. Let’s hope that it serves to wake up all Scotsmen as to who they must vote for.
Better yet, it will without a doubt intensify the growing determination of Scotsmen to forgo the pleasure of donating sperm, but sperm could always be imported and most certainly will if that should become necessary.
The growing determination of men to refuse to donate sperm for artificial insemination is without a doubt due to an equally atrocious power of the authorities to increasingly-often find men who donated sperm guilty of having fathered children that now are no longer entitled to ever be able to see their natural fathers (the anonymity of sperm donors is no longer guaranteed). That is even though those “fathers” can be and increasingly often are punished for their abstract views on paternity, by sentencing them to pay child support “in the best interest of the children” whom they fathered and will not legally be able to see or interact with. All of that to avoid “discrimination” against lesbians of whom only a handful elects to undergo IVF procedures to begin with.
Discrimination against lesbians is not the real issue that is to be addressed through this legislation. That argument only serves to pull the wool over our eyes. The real objective is to obliterate even the last vestiges of the institution of the traditional nuclear family and to permanently assign to all men the status of second-class citizens or, if you wish, to make them the third-millennium-equivalent of Jews in the Nazi regime. Profit motives for the IVF industry are only a secondary and minor concern (see IVF costs). Although those costs range from about ten- to twenty-thousand dollars, the success rate for IVF attempts is only 29 percent.
Millions of men sacrificed their lives (and many more their health) to fight for the protection of freedom and security of home and country, expressively to prevent what is happening now in Scotland and in many other developed nations from coming about. What a waste that was!
So it happens that lesbianism is not merely an evolutionary dead-end but quite literally a tool used to bring about the death of our civilization.
Update June 7, 2008:
Current total fertility rates (TFRs) for countries in the world - Rank Order. The web page accessible through the preceding link lists the rank order from highest to lowest, with a TFR of about 2.2 indicating a stable population. The TFR required to maintain a given country’s population varies a little from country to country, depending on the life expectancy for the average resident in that country. (Source: CIA World Factbook)
As of June 2008, the CIA World Factbook showed 104 countries (generally the richest and most developed) to have TFRs of less than 2.2. In other words, in those countries the population is in the process of shrinking. (Related Articles at Fathers for Life)

Numerical illiteracy: the “40km-wide” Bruderheim blaze
May 21, 2008 by Walter Schneider.
Victoria Handysides reported for MetroNews.ca in a May 20, 2008 article that, “The town of Bruderheim lost five homes after a 40 km-wide [sic] blaze began Thursday afternoon.”
That quoted sentence contains two inaccuracies, both exaggerations, one of which is
a real whopper, apparently caused by lack of common sense in combination with numerical illiteracy, an inability to comprehend — in realistic and practical ways — numbers that pertain to life in the real world.
It may surprise Victoria Handysides to learn that the town of Bruderheim lost no homes at all in that fire. The homes that were lost comprised homes in the Bruderheim area, almost ten km NW from the town limits, while four families became homeless. Victoria Handysides must have manufactured her facts relating to that; if not, I wonder what news report she used for her claim. She certainly could not have gotten it from anyone from Bruderheim she interviewed. Even if she would have conducted an interview, she should have verified her facts with someone who lives in or near Bruderheim, which she obviously neglected to do.
The real whopper, the “40km-wide blaze”, could have been avoided with nothing more than a bit of common sense, applied through geometry by Victoria Handyside and, more importantly, by her editors. That could and can be done by anyone not living even close to Bruderheim, anyone in the whole wide world.
If the blaze that burned down the homes NW of Bruderheim was 40km wide, then it would have been at the very least 40km long. That would have made the blaze one of the largest ever in Canada, involving at least in the order of 1,600 square kilometres or 160,000 hectares.
In addition, Victoria Handysides reported that,
“It was really intense for a time because of the high winds,” Cote said, adding that the streets in the village of 1,500 people were filled with smoke on Thursday. “It was eerie, because it was coming our way, but we set up defences that made sure it didn’t get farther than it did.[”]
There was never any danger that the fire would have put the town of Bruderheim at risk. There simply are too many open fields between the town and the forested area that burned. Moreover, the size of the area that burned comprised a total of about 250ha, an area of 2.5 square kilometres, very far from being 40km wide.
The news provided by Metro are free but also worthless, at least as far as reporting on the blaze near Bruderheim is concerned. One must wonder, though, whether for MetroNews sensationalizing in news reporting is more important than the truth, and perhaps in more subject areas than just 40km-wide blazes.
At any rate, such whoppers indicate the dumbing-down of our education system in action.
