Leonardi posts on a diocesan e-Pistle that a Cincinnati parish has signed-on to an ambitious project to donate up to $100,000 a year for five years to the Millennium Promise. The Millennium Promise derives from The United Nations and its Millennium Project.
It might be hoped that the parish is only aware of the more nobler aspects of the Millennium Project and not it pro-abortion and contraception slant that even talks about "girls" as well as women’s reproductive rights. Of course you have to be pretty naive in the first place to not know just how much most U.N. programs and bureaucracies are co-workers in the culture of death in the first place. A half a million dollars would be much better served by their local crisis pregnancy centers than any well-meaning but seriously flawed U.N. program.
Looking for some other information I came across something rather strange. "The Mediation Room" at the United Nations Headquarters which is built in the shape of a truncated pyramid. In the center is an altar made out of magnetite, the largest natural piece of magnetite ever mined. This goes together with some abstract mural. This room for years was maintained by Lucis Trust (formerly the Lucifer Publishing Company) so for conspiracy theorists that’s a pretty big chunk of red meat.

It gets more and more difficult to support peace and social justice organizations without inadvertently funding the “right” to kill. Does anyone know of any organizations that promote peace and social justice beyond our borders AND life?
drooling like pavlov’s dog over here.
Sounds like someone saw the “social justice” aspect and didn’t care that it includes killing babies. It is for the “greater good” you know.
The thing is that not every group involved in abortion and contraception announces it (that should tell us s’thing right there) when they request money for good causes. So I could be supporting abortion when I give money to the Boy Scouts, for all I know. Of course if I were to pledge enormous sums of other people’s money, I would be more careful, i hope.
Joanne, check out Catholic Relief Services. Although their main focus is on emergency relief and development, they do engage in peacebuilding programs in several countries.
