When Gianna Jessen was first born they said she would never walk, or talk, or sit up. She walks, she sings, she plays guitar, she runs, she dances!

“We can terminate for serious foetal abnormality up to term but cannot kill a newborn. What do people think has happened in the passage down the birth canal to make it okay to kill the foetus at one end of the birth canal but not at the other?” he said.

This is the right question. Too bad these Satanists have the wrong answer to it.

Monsters. Nothing more needs to be said.

I am SO glad that our Founding Fathers fled Europe.

Okay, but what if the disablity is a painful one for the child.

How do you get to the point where you look at a child and say "It's flawed, let's kill it."?

It is, in my opinion, that this sort of thing is acceptable where there is an absence of Christ. Europe needs to come back to God, lest they rot from within.

That "Royal College" would have called, then, for the murder of my daughter (had we been in England).

Now 26 years old, our eldest daughter was born with sever hydrocephalus. Her head was the size of a 2-year-old's at birth. The doctors declared that she couldn't live 4 days. When she did, they decided to implant a shunt.

At three weeks old, neurosurgeons told us, our daughter had no significant brain matter. "She is USELESS," said one (his exact words), "and she will be so severely retarded she will take up your time and your resources....let us take her and put her in an institution where she is likely to die anyway."

This girl is now a 26-year-old young woman who is a mathematics genius, a good tutor of children in math and language arts, has a near photographic memory, publishes books of heartwarming poetry, and is great to be around. She is one of the wittiest individuals we have ever met. She is a good musician; plays mandolin, piano and a couple of traditional Chinese stringed instruments. She speaks good Mandarin, some Russian and a lot of Tagalog (Filipino). Severely retarded? If that it, I shall pray to become severely retarded like her!

Our lovely daughter would have been euthanized by the Royal Jelly brains in England.

"some British doctors and ethicists are now in favour."

An ethicist is not a doctor. Are these doctors medical doctors or philosophy doctors? Once again we see the value the left puts on human life.

Wow.

God bless you and your daughter. She is a living testimony to the idiocy of these death cultists.

The German physicians were the first to practice this. The chronically ill, physically and mentally handicapped were euthanized. Then they went to Poland, and determined the Polish race to be physically and mentally unfit. Then the Vichy French sent more Jews.....

We all know where it led from there. Sometimes I think the British should have been subject to Hitler for a few years. Unfortunately the Russians got a taste of Lenin and Stalin, but the British want to emulate Socialism.

“We can terminate for serious foetal abnormality up to term but cannot kill a newborn.

terminate a foetus but kill a newborn?

freudian slip there. Semantics notwithstanding, killing and terminating are one and the same. These people make me sick.

What is the definition of disabled baby?

A very disabled child can mean a disabled family

Step 1. Corrupt the language...

What do people think has happened in the passage down the birth canal to make it okay to kill the foetus at one end of the birth canal but not at the other?

It's a very good question.

Getting pretty close to the Nazi idea of a perfect human. The only difference is the Nazis believed the ones who deserved to die were born to the wrong race.

I believe Nazi did the same for the sick and disabled, regardless of race.

How can you ask this question and miss the point so completely?

Perhaps sterilization of drug addicts, hippies and nitwits would be a better option. However that might affect a large part of the population including many MP's.
