And when the Ancient Greeks used to "expose" unwanted babies, was that a sign of the "end of days", too?

It ought to be possible to oppose killing infants without being an apocalyptic ninny.

It was not at all anything of a religious nature in which I added the comment. Sorry you missed the subtlety of what I tried to convey.

Do you know how far and wide ancient Greece used to spread? Yes, for Greece it was a sign of the end of days; it is a culture & population in decline (and this relates to their economic woes - a shrinking number of workers supporting a growing number of retirees). Compare Greece and Turkey in terms of birthrate, and you’ll understand that not only is northern Cyprus gone for good, it is only a matter of time before the Turks take back what the West wrested from them almost 200 years ago. It won’t be violent; they’ll be invited in by the last Greeks to keep the trains running, etc.

Not to the aborted child.

Exactly what I was thinking! ... Except I had a few exclamation points at the end of that thought.
