Nobody said the sky is falling. I just said I pity you because you are indeed a poor dumb fool. Maybe once you’ve matured and gained a bit of humility and wisdom you you’ll be able to look back and see how foolish you once were.

ok darth

I don’t see anything wrong with trying to selectively breed certain things out of our species.

If down syndrome was a defect passed down through genes you might have more of a "betterment of the species" case. Since it isn't a genetic disorder that could be eradicated through these means it kind of just comes off as selfish and cruel.

but as a pro-choicer I don't believe it's my decision to tell other people what they can and can't do in this regard.

Doesn't matter if it's Down Syndrome. If they are a human being, they should have the right to life as they are made in the image of God and have intrinsic value.

But they aren't human if they haven't been born yet. I'm not anti Down Syndrome, but I'm pro choice and it should be the right of the person carrying the unborn child to decide.

I absolutly agree if you are refering to the government making that determination.

What about passing through a vagina makes a non-human a human?

So a human being only becomes a human being once they slip out a hole?

It seems by your proposition we were all at the mercy if we had good parents or shitty selfish parents.

So up to the moment a child passes through the vagina opening, you don’t consider them as being human?

Oh, I get it. You're one of those.

My sister was a adopted, but I'm still Pro Choice.

Basically. I'm certainly glad my sister's birth parents gave her up for adoption, but not everyone is born into the same circumstances.

You still didn’t answer what makes you think passing through a vigina makes someone alive and that before that they're what? just some sort of unfeeling lump of cells?
