Wiki Is Sometimes Surprisingly Interesting

Do you all know about this? Do any readers have more reliable info on this group? I have not studied this group and came across it quite by accident.

The book which set this group into play is Limits to Growth. One can see the influences which are contrary to Catholic teaching in this article.

Just look at the list of books on the last entry.

I admire Pope Paul VI more and more, as his encyclical Humanae Vitae was written in the ambience of these types of groups. 

Thankfully, I missed the rise of these ideas, converted in 1971 from stupidity and ideologies which could have led to this type of thinking. But, God protected me and renewed my excellent Catholic Classical education in my soul, heart and mind.

I am sure those university students right behind me read some of this stuff. Of course, we studied Malthus, the evil genius of abortion and contraception as necessaries, an Anglican buried in Bath Abbey. The fact that Maltus visited Germany and Switzerland, which have connections to the Club of Rome seems more than coincidental.

His bio is linked to Limits to Growth on wiki.
