Pepsi and Aborted Fetuses

Enjoy drinking Pepsi? Did you know that one of it's many flavor enhancers is aborted fetus cells? Probably not. I'm glad I gave up sodas. Regardless of your stance on abortion - people deserve to know what they're consuming. Some people find the idea of being a cannibal to be a bit disturbing to say the least. I can't say I blame them. Is informing the public of what they're consuming too much to ask? Apparently the owners and stockholders at Pepsi seem to think so.

The views expressed in this short article aren't mind. Just passing along the information. Judge for yourself.

'Scores of prolife groups are calling for a public boycott of food giant, PepsiCo, due to its partnership with Senomyx, a biotech company that uses aborted fetal cells in the research and development of artificial flavor enhancers.

LifeSiteNews previously reported on Senomyx’s partnership with major food corporations, most notably PepsiCo, Kraft Foods, and Nestlé. Pro-life watchdog group, Children of God for Life (CGL), is now joined by major pro-life organizations calling upon the public to target PepsiCo in a boycott.

Pro-Life Groups Call for Pepsi Boycott Over Aborted Fetal Cell Lines

LARGO Florida (LifeSiteNews.com) – Scores of prolife groups are calling for a public boycott of food giant PepsiCo, due to its partnership with Senomyx, a biotech company that uses aborted fetal cells in the research and development of artificial flavor enhancers.

LifeSiteNews previously reported on Senomyx’s partnership with major food corporations, most notably PepsiCo, Kraft Foods, and Nestlé.

Pro-life watchdog group, Children of God for Life (CGL), is now joined by major pro-life organizations calling upon the public to target PepsiCo in a boycott.

Pepsi is funding the research and development, and paying royalties to Senomyx, which uses HEK-293 (human embryonic kidney cells) to produce flavor enhancers for Pepsi beverages.

“Using isolated human taste receptors we created proprietary taste receptor-based assay systems that provide a biochemical or electronic readout when a flavor ingredient interacts with the receptor,” says the Senomyx website.

“What they do not tell the public is that they are using HEK 293 – human embryonic kidney cells taken from an electively aborted baby to produce those receptors,” stated Debi Vinnedge, President for CGL, the watch dog group that has been monitoring the use of aborted fetal material in medical products and cosmetics for years.

The aborted fetal cells are not in the product itself. However, “there are many options PepsiCo could be using instead of aborted fetal cells,” noted Vinnedge.

The revelation about Senomyx’s research techniques motivated Campbell Soup to sever all relations with Senomyx.

However, PepsiCo continues their business relationship despite the abortion connection. They drew pubic ire earlier this year when they responded, saying, “our collaboration with Senomyx is strictly limited to creating lower-calorie, great-tasting beverages for consumers.”

When pressed further, PepsiCo sent out a form letter response saying they had been accused of conducting aborted fetal tissue research.

Bradley Mattes, executive director of Life Issues Institute, said, “While aborted fetal cells aren’t actually in the product itself, the close relationship is enough to repulse most consumers. To our knowledge, this is the first time a food product has been publicly associated with abortion.”

The pro-life groups noted that additional companies collaborating with Senomyx will be targeted for boycott next.

The pro-life organizations are asking the public to boycott all Pepsi drink products and encourage consumers to contact Pepsi management requesting that they sever all ties with Senomyx.

The Beauty of Diversity

 I think we've all heard such statements as "variety is the spice of life" or "it takes all types to make the world turn". I couldn't agree more. If everything was the same life would be bland.

  Muhammad Ali said it right. Contrary to what many might think; he's not a bigot. He's a lover of nature. That's an admiral trait to have.  40 plus years of social engineering has taken it's tole on society and all that's good is now deemed "bad" or "wrong". It's now considered "racist" (in most people's minds) to support the preservation of your own people and want your children to look like you. 

Most people claiming to love diversity are the ones working to destroy it. Think about it. If you love the fact that Africans are black, Europeans are white, Asians are mongoloid,and etc. then not wanting these races staying true blue -  mating exclusively within their own kind - is a passive way of supporting racial genocide. Diversity is our strength - allowing us to thrive in all types of climates.

Such diversity is also found within different species of trees and animals. This diversity ensures the survival of life in general in addition to proving a wide array of unique beauty that's utterly breath taking.

 "Creatures flock together with their kind, doves with doves, cranes with cranes and so on." -
Greek philosopher Democritus (c.460 BC)



 Likewise, societies living in accordance with natural gender roles tend to be healthier - physically,emotionally,and spiritually. The reason being? It works. Feminism is at odds with our very nature and as a result has created a retrograde "culture". Nothing functions as it should and our socioeconomic infrastructure is in a state of utter disarray. 

Is it any wonder why divorce is at an all time high? Western society is out of sync with Mother Nature. Men and women are competing with one another in the home as well as in the work place. Men and women  no longer improve the quality of each others lives. The Yin and the Yang are out of balance. It's horrible.

Humanity will eventually awaken from it's stupor and realize what truly matters in life is the overall well being of society. I'm not advocating a return to a puritanical age. Such times were utterly oppressive on different levels. Living in harmony with our nature doesn't have to involve a return to an age of misogyny nor some Hellish feminist dominated society of dystopic proportions where women rule and men are subservient. There's a better way.


"A Society Without Fathers or Husbands: The Na of China" written by Cai Hua is a fascinating read about a culture within China that's existed for over three millennium. The concept of both fatherhood and husbandry is alien to these people. It's a matrilineal society honoring the natural gender roles while allowing both men and woman liberty to have as many romantic partners as they please without disrupting the fabric of society. Contrary to what many might think; it's highly functional. Men are the leaders of society while the women are it's nurturers. Both suicide and homicide are virtually non-existent with the Na people.

 Click here for part one and here for part two of a short documentary on these amazing Na (Moso/Mosuo) people.

What these people are doing works. What we're doing doesn't work. Do the math! Our own culture has failed us and it's largely due to the fact that "our" culture was never ours to begin with. Back in the annals of our history and before Christianity was spawned and imposed upon our ancestors; they were pagan. Long overdue is another cultural renaissance - an amalgamation of the best of everything from now and from our past. Only time will tell if this transpires and in what form. It's doubtful any of this will take place without  first enduring a fairly lengthy dark age.
