On this day:

AD 676, Donus begins his reign as Pope.

AD 1755, Marie Antoinette, Martyr Queen of France, was born. She was executed during the French Revolution.

AD 1789, The property of the church in France is taken away by the state, and is still State property! But today, there is talk of funding mosques by the State!

AD 1921, Margaret Sanger and Mary Ware Dennett form the American Birth Control League. Birth control, abortion and racially based eugenics, a potent, evil, death-affirming brew which is still bubbling!
