Legitimizing Infanticide

There is a campaign underway to make infanticide seem normal and a legitimate medical procedure. The latest example is this puff piece in the New York Times (registration may be required), non-judgmentally "profiling" a doctor who kills disabled babies in the Netherlands. This follows hard on the heels of the Los Angeles Times publishing a pro-infanticide column by "ethics expert," the notorious Peter Singer of Princeton, and the New England Journal of Medicine publishing an apologia for killing babies written by two Dutch infanticide doctors. I'll try and expound on this disturbing trend sometime next week.

Wes,

as an Australian who was raised in Melbourne, but now lives in Sydney, I wince every time I read the opinions of Peter Singer. He seems to have no understanding of the meaning of human life.

That man is inhuman. He is responsible for the loss of so much in the way of life.
