What if their baby had been born "perfect". Then something happened and the baby became disabled in some way- a high fever that caused some type of brain damage perhaps? Would their baby be disposable then?

It's the same thing, imo.

It is indeed the same thing ... and pro-"choice" "ethicists" like Peter Singer are already arguing for the "right" to kill born babies.

There is a special spot in hell for such people.

As opposed to sanctimonious Pharisees who think they're better than other sinners because their sins are easier to hide?

This article is a very stark reminder of how abortion is often a choice of despararation - and one all too easy to rationalize. I am aghast that no one on this board has any compassion whatsoever for the fact that this couple struggled with one of the hardest dilemmas they could have and took the immoral but easy way out.

Did they make the wrong choice? Sure. But, only by the grace of God go you or I.

Perfect parents but only to the "perfect" baby. I hope she had her tubes tied or her husband had a vasectomy, yeesh, what selfishness!

Like people who post just to call other people sanctimonious Pharisees?

Go away.
