@I_am_a_gimp@IterIntellectus@SydSteyerhart But they do so we have the luxury to have a choice. I do not understand the second sentence. I do not believe in any god. It is murder, but you prevent a miserable existence to be born and prevent creation of a viable one. You are killing a potencial life in any case.
@I_am_a_gimp@IterIntellectus@SydSteyerhart Only difference is that this baby is immediately present and tickles our moral sense. But you can decide to abort this one to conceive another healthy one. Either you prevent one from living and I thing it is more human to alow to live to the healthier one.
@I_am_a_gimp@IterIntellectus@SydSteyerhart I lookd at the stats. Screening is 90% accurate and the invasive "baby sample" is 99,9%+ accurate. So if screening is possitive, take the invasive one and you will know. Again the life of this child or the one prevented to be conceived are both equaly prevented to live.
@I_am_a_gimp@IterIntellectus@SydSteyerhart What is wrong about playing god? We play god when we administer antidepressants. What if a kid which could be born a year after was the world peace bring but was not born because the down syndrom one? Both is playing god the first one is just not apparent.
@I_am_a_gimp@IterIntellectus@SydSteyerhart And eugenics is not always bad. You were told all these years that eugenics is bad inherently which it is not. Prevent bad genetics for the person wiith them to manifest and you allow better (I mean for the persons happiness) genetics to be able to take it's place.
@BoosterWegee@vinnRot@bralternativo_ You are killing a potential child too but because it is not immediate your emotions can not override your intelect.
@BoosterWegee@vinnRot@bralternativo_ That is because they do not see the implication. And one last thing. If you do not let the defective child live you pave a way for another possible healthy child to come into this world which would not have happened if the defective one took al the energy and resouces of parents.
@YellowFlashGuy The only reason you are against it is because you believe in god. The reality is they did the right thing. It is cruel to bring such kids into the world.
