    A more interesting moral dilemma is whether or not we should modify the human genome to eliminate things like dwarfism.


    I don't know that anyone would defend involuntary euthanasia. I think it's a separate question from aborting a severely disabled fetus, though. My wife and I have been toying with having another kid. There are a very tiny number if issues that, if present, would cause us to seriously consider aborting. That list does exist, though. Anencephaly is on it.

    From a strict view where all abortion is murder, aborting due to severe issues would be killing someone for being disabled. It's easy to say that without considering the context, though.
    I'm not here anymore.

      Anyone want to discuss the implications surrounding aborting disabled babies? What about people killing babies for being a little girl and not a boy?
      If it weren't for the Resurrection of Jesus, we'd all be in DEEP TROUBLE!
