Planned Parenthood's new condom key chains
'blasphemous'
Thu Jan 12 2006
Planned Parenthood has launched a line of condom key chains --
key chains that offend "just about everyone in the country,"
claims Jim Sedlak, executive director of American Life League's
STOPP International. "Some are even blasphemous."
The condom key chains, featuring 28 different designs, are
offered for sale on Planned Parenthood of Connecticut's web
site. Each chain has a picture or slogan on a plastic holder
containing a latex condom.
"Planned Parenthood offends religious people with its key chain
that shows a portion of the famous painting from the Sistine
Chapel. Michelangelo gave us a beautiful image of Adam
stretching out his hand to God, with God's index finger about to
touch Adam's index finger," said Sedlak. "In Planned
Parenthood's blasphemous version, God is handing Adam a condom.
"Planned Parenthood goes on to offend parents with its key chain
that shows a caricature of a loudly crying baby," said Sedlak.
"Planned Parenthood's slogan accompanying the caricature states,
'Condoms are cheaper than diapers.'
In addition, Sedlak said Planned Parenthood offends all
patriotic Americans with a series of three key chains. "The
first is a takeoff of the famous 'Uncle Sam Wants You' poster
from World War II in Planned Parenthood's version Uncle Sam is
replaced with a condom saying 'I Want You.' The second is an
American flag picture with the stars in the field of blue
replaced with the words, 'Wear with Pride.' The third is a
picture of the Statue of Liberty holding a condom instead of a
torch."
Other condom key chains show just how much sex permeates all
Planned Parenthood thinking. There's one that says, "Earth and
condoms, we can't live without them."
