This makes me sick! What can anyone do but pray that this NEVER becomes mainstream in the worldview of people. “Abortion is largely accepted even for reasons that do not have anything to do with the fetus' health. By showing that (1) both fetuses and newborns do not have the same moral status as actual persons, (2) the fact that both are potential persons is morally irrelevant and (3) adoption is not always in the best interest of actual people, the authors argue that what we call ‘after-birth abortion’ (killing a newborn) should be permissible in all the cases where abortion is, including cases where the newborn is not disabled.” - Alberto Giubilini & Francesca Minerva Journal of Medical Ethics, Abstract, Published 23 February, 2012 Links: http://www.theblaze.com/stories/eth...h-abortions-as-newborns-are-not-persons/http://jme.bmj.com/cgi/secure_ppv?jcode=medethics&resource_id=medethics;medethics-2011-100411&type=ppv&ppv_type=article&url=http%3A%2F%2Fjme.bmj.com%2Fcontent%2Fearly%2F2012%2F02%2F22%2Fmedethics-2011-100411.abstract

Abortion and Infanticide (sometimes termed "exposure of infants") was commonplace in the first century Greco-Roman world, which is why both practices are specifically condemned in the Didache.

I agree with the National Catholic Register, which the article quotes as saying that these authors are right � once you accept their ideas on personhood � and that the argument made by the ethicists is "almost pro-life" in that it highlights the absurdity of the pro-abortion argument: The second we allow ourselves to become the arbiters of who is human and who isn't, this is the calamitous yet inevitable end. Once you say all human life is not sacred, the rest is just drawing random lines in the sand. Unfortunately, we are fast moving to a society that sees all "social" values as lines in the sand.

This is part of the "theology" of radical secularists. Unfortunately the current federal Administration has the largest representation of this ideology since the founding of the Republic.
We throw ourselves upon God's Mercy and the Wisdom of the Holy Spirit to deliver us from this scourge.
No government will ever disassociate itself from religion. The nation is experiencing a revolution which changes its conscience from a Christian one to one which worships a sociology based on a twisted science.

I hate to tell ya but we already done arrived at this point. Most people don't know Polish from polish when it comes to abortion and could not tell you what the concept of personhood is, even at gunpoint.
Divorcing morality from metaphysics has an inevitably negative outcome, sooner or later.

This goes to the root of the problem: "abortion" is a misnomer, to soften and misdirect. The correct term is, "prenatal infanticide."  hawk
