I suppose that my feelings on abortion and the topic of euthanasia are related. How do YOU think I feel about euthanasia?I minored in special ed, I lived and worked with downs adults (what a hoot) in a community residence for a year and a half. I'm not talking about kids with handicaps like that. In Children's Services, you see some of the goddamned awfullest tricks that mother nature can play and babies born with no brain and babies born with diseases that will kill them before their first birthday and require all kinds of painful frightening hospitalizations just to get them that far. IT SUCKS to see kids suffer. That extends to children who are born into miserable defeating circumstances when they are unwanted and are also going to suffer. I don't like it.I don't have a god.No, not Downs. Babies with no hope for quality of life, or a brief life of severe suffering. Vegetables and babies with no hope. You got a funny God.You mean like how before they are even born they have downs syndrome or some other unfortunate disease? Well, that's gods plan and just the way it is!
Maybe today, but yesteryears, down syndrome babies wouldn't have a quality of life.
So if someone contracts cancer and the prognosis is death it's OK to kill them?
I'm talking about what you advocate, if a child is to sickly and will suffer you feel abortion is OK, using that logic someone that contracts cancer should be killed. The child has no choice in the matter the descion is made for it, the same for people diagnosed to die? Just kill them to save them from suffering?
I believe life begins at conception and that life has rights...just as you and I do
