Dr. Stanley Plotkin is considered the godfather of vaccines. He reluctantly admitted the horrific facts about abortion and vaccine manufacturing — facts the pharmaceutical industry has spent decades hiding.

He claimed only two fetuses were involved in his work. Then the lawyer handed him a study he authored — using 76 aborted babies. Plotkin was forced to admit the truth: They weren’t miscarriages. All were over three months’ gestation. All were normally developed. They were aborted for social and psychiatric reasons — so their organs could be harvested. Lungs. Kidneys. Hearts. Tongues. Pituitary glands. Chopped into pieces and cultured for vaccine production.

When the lawyer noted that his client objected to vaccines developed from aborted babies, Plotkin responded by claiming the Catholic Church approves the vaccines — and that only the researchers involved will go to hell for it. Then he said: “I am glad to do that.” He is glad to go to hell.

Bishop Athanasius Schneider has a different view: “We have to resist and not collaborate in any way with these vaccines.” Receiving abortion-tainted vaccines, he warns, marks the body with a sign connected to the greatest evil.

The proof is undeniable. The question is whether Catholics will continue to accept what the culture tells them — or recognize the horror they are being asked to receive. The godfather of vaccines is glad to go to hell. The question is whether the faithful will follow him there.
