PLEASE may I set out why the Prime Minister is wrong to support the Human Fertilisation and Embryology Bill and why we must tell him?

The idea of joining animal and human life belongs to a belief that we are animals and nothing more (e.g. Darwinism/Evolutionism).

This belief goes back to the ancient Greek thinker, Plato, whose ideal state (Sparta) had a powerful ruling class or caste, who controlled the rest as cattle' or sheep'. The rulers had total contempt for the human animals under their control. This is the origin of the Western ideas of the totalitarian state (e.g. Fascism/Marxism).

The clever' people who know it all' say that it is best for the sheep' to have dogs' who keep the flocks or herds under control. The dogs' or, the secular priests' of our age, are those politicians, journalists and thinkers (e.g. scientists) who choose to serve the ruling class or caste rather than the ideal of disinterested thought. These have betrayed their high calling found in the examples of Socrates and Jesus Christ.

We the people, are not cattle. We must wake up, say no' to the pagan scientific barbarism and utopian social evolutionism of today. Write to the PM, MPs and Government Ministers.

Note any patronising contempt in their replies. Remember your right to vote and to approve or disagree.

Trust me, I'm a doctor' is not democracy: think, act, vote.
