The fact that human beings with the knowledge and capability to do such a thing exist on this earth is amazing.

Agreed. A 23 week old baby. Amazing.

Note: 23 weeks is less than a six month old baby, and thus, second trimester... makes you think.

Why are they doing surgery on an non-human mass of cells?

I thought "science" told us that these were just a collection of cells? This science stuff is getting in the way of the narrative.

Good!

We’re one step closer to in-utero sex changes for those babies that are upset about the result of their gender reveal party
