- Thorrez 4y agoGoing back to the topic of eugenics, since you posted a link about eugenics: the Catholic Church has been against eugenics since it first got popular, when the 30 states you mention legalized forced sterilization. https://academic.oup.com/jah/article-abstract/103/2/498/1750859 https://academic.oup.com/jah/article-abstract/103/2/498/1750... Whether opposing eugenics is progressive or anti-progressive seems like a confusing topic to me.
