Margaret Higgins Sanger Slee (September 14, 1879 - September 6, 1966) was an American birth control activist, advocate of eugenics, and the founder of the American Birth Control League. In June 1928, Margaret Higgins Sanger resigned as president of the American Birth Control League, founding the National Committee for Federal Legislation on Birth Control and splitting the Birth Control Clinical Research Bureau from the League. In 1939 the two were reconciled and merged to form the Birth Control Federation of America. In 1937 Sanger became chairperson of the Birth Control Council of America and launched two publications, The Birth Control Review and The Birth Control News. From 1939 to 1942 she was an honorary delegate of the Birth Control Federation of America, which included a supervisory role with the Negro Project. In 1942 the name was changed to Planned Parenthood Federation of America.
Margaret Sanger In Her Own Words
Abortion: "...the most merciful thing a large family can do to one of its infant members is to kill it." (Sanger, Margaret, "Women and the New Race" (New York: Brentano's, 1920. Reprint. Geo. W. Halter, 1928), p.67)"
Eugenics: "Fostering the good-for-nothing at the expense of the good is an extreme cruelty...there is no greater curse to posterity than that of bequeathing them [i.e., future generations] an increasing population of imbeciles," She [was speaking] of the burden of caring for "this dead weight of human waste." (Michael Crichton, State of Fear, Avon Books: An Imprint of Harper Collins Publishers, Copyright 2004, Appendix I, page 633.)
Promiscuity:"Tells her sixteen (16) year old granddaughter that kissing, petting and even intercourse were fine as long as she was 'sincere,' and that having sex about 'three (3) times a day' was 'just about right.'" (Gray, Madeline, Sanger, Margaret: "A Biography of the Champion of Birth Control" (NY: Richard Marek Publishers, 1979), pp, 227-8.)
Religion: "Birth control appeals to the advanced radical because it is calculated to undermine the authority of the Christian Churches. I look forward to seeing humanity free someday of the tyranny of Christianity no less than Capitalism." (Quoted in David Goldstein, Suicide Bent: Sangerizing America, St. Paul: Radio Replies Press, 1945, p. 103.)Silence is a Form of Tacit Consent
Anyone who reads George Grant's "Grand Illusions" published by Wolgemuth and Hayatt, Publishers, Inc. Brentwood Tennessee, in 1988 or other exposés of Planned Parenthood will come to know that Margaret Sanger was an open eugenicist who consorted with German Nazis and advocated a creeping genocide of races she felt to be inferior through promotion of "birth control," "abortion," and "family planning". In Planned Parenthood's Annual Report in 1985 their slogan was: "Proud of Our Past - Planning the Future." (Planned Parenthood of Houston and Southeast Texas, Annual Report, 1985.). Planned Parenthood is not our future nor our friend. Christ is our future and our friend. Christ came that we might have life and have it abundantly. Christ boldly promotes the sanctity of life. As watchmen on the wall, it is time we stop tacitly approving evil by our silence. The lives of our people depend on it.
Brothers, we really need to talk.

Thank you for sharing this Barbara. My daughter has chosen to bow out of the sex ed portion at her school for the past two years (4th & 5th grade). Our school brings in a Planned Parenthood rep to teach the three day course. Because of her choice, other parents have allowed their kids to skip the course as well.
I don't bring my Christian beliefs into the argument because that causes people to put up walls. I simply use the same tired argument in reverse..."Her body, her choice". It's really hard for them to fight against that!
