"From the first moment of his existence, a human being must be recognized as having the rights of a person -- among which is the inviolable right of every innocent being to life."

He said that traits such as empathy, sympathy and fair-mindedness could create more moral people.

Let's murder the innocent, imperfect unborn so that we can have a more moral society. Riiiiight.

[MadIvan]

Let's be careful. Remember, this unpleasant fellow believed in "genetic screening" too -

No different from the Nazis.

Except now they are being killed at a younger age, for less problematic diseases, and in greater numbers.

Oh God, forgive us.

Bump for later consideration.

Isn't abortion wonderful?

He said that traits such as empathy, sympathy and fair-mindedness could create more moral people.

My grandmother once allowed my sister to put honey on pickles; she drew the line, though, at washing two-day old snow to make "ice cream."

Officials in Ontario are planning to test for 21 metabolic conditions, compared with the two screening tests it now conducts.

Of course, we'll never hear whether they discover a gay gene. That wouldn't be Politically Correct.

He also argued in favor of using screening to test for desirable character traits. "I think we've got a reason for using (tests) not just to screen out diseases, but in looking at the kind of characteristics our children are likely to have," he told the Age. He said that traits such as empathy, sympathy and fair-mindedness could create more moral people.

Just a short hop to screening for blue eyes and blonde hair, eh?

This makes me sick. My son, Tyler, was diagnosed with Cystic Fibrosis at 1 week of age. He will be 24 years old in June. He has been an absolute blessing in my life. I can't imagine anyone terminating a pregnancy for any reason. We've dealt with his disease as best we can, physically, emotionally, and spiritually. Children are a gift from God. Period.

This is lovely!

Just think, if those with mental defects were all aborted, there'd be no libs.

[ladyinred]

More proof that Nazi's were leftists.

[SuziQ]

This is the main reason I don't give any money to the March of Dimes. They have reduced the 'problem' of birth defects by encouraging the use of amniocentisis to discover whether or not a child has problems. If it is found that a child has birth defects, the parents are encouraged NOT to put themselves through the heartache of raising a 'defective' child.

Designer babies another word for abortion.
