Atheism has historically been and is currently linked to eugenics.
In the infamous 1927 Supreme Court ruling Buck v. Bell, the majority opinion ruled in favor of forced sterilizations on "socially inadequate" people. The decision was written by atheist Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes, Jr., a progressive who believed in Darwinian evolution/Social darwinism[1] and who notoriously said that "three generations of imbeciles are enough."[2]
Margaret Sanger, the founder of Planned Parenthood, was a racist progressive and anti-Christian bigot who rejected Judeo-Christian Values; her work was tied to Nazism.[3][4] Adolf Hitler, an anti-religious dictator and likely atheist,[5] was responsible for the brutal mass murder of millions of innocent people.
Atheism and Down syndrome abortion
The American Civil Liberties Union is a secular, anti-Christian organization which defends selectively aborting unborn children detected to have Down syndrome.[6][7][8] In 2018, the organization sued to block a bill in Ohio that would criminalize abortions based on a Down syndrome diagnosis.[9]
