George Washington in his inaugural address on April 30,, 1789: “…We ought to be no less persuaded that the propitious smiles of Heaven can never be expected on a nation that disregards the eternal rules of order and right which Heaven itself has ordained.”
It’s the logical next step for a culture that worships self and loves death: killing disabled infants.
Yes, it’s just the next consistent (evil) step for those who reject God’s Word.
Comments a Canadian physician made in 2022—which I wrote about at the time—are making the rounds on social media again after they were shared by Campaign Life Coalition during a speech.
This physician suggested that Canada’s incredibly expansive euthanasia program (called MAiD, or “medical assistance in dying”) should be further expanded to include infants up to one year old who have “severe deformations” and “very grave . . . medical syndromes.” In other words, if parents missed being able to abort their baby with a disability before birth, no problem—doctors should be able to kill the baby after birth!
Now, this is the logical next step (it’s evil, but it is logical, given Canada’s laws on abortion) as there is no difference in the personhood and value of a baby before they are born and afterward. That baby is exactly the same person—the only thing that has changed is location and level of development.
So if you are willing to kill a baby at any stage of development in the womb (on the taxpayers’ dime in Canada), why not kill them after they are born? And they are already promoting euthanasia big time too!
Yes, it’s the logical next step, because abortion completely devalues a human life. Rather than recognizing that each human life has value because he or she is made in the image of God, abortion says your value is dependent on whether or not you are wanted or how convenient or inconvenient your life will be to others. And, of course, euthanasia says the same thing—life only has value if it’s free from suffering or is convenient for others (or convenient for the government to keep paying for your health care!).
Abortion and euthanasia are both deadly fruits of the same idol: worship of self.

@ZachWLambert I would take such comments more seriously if they were not an emotionally manipulative load of fallacies meant to shame people into compliance with an embedded narrative that pretends to be based on scripture rather than culture.
