Re: You Decide

Prenatal screening plus Roe v. Wade equals runaway eugenics. Abortion has restored the practice of weeding out the unfit and undesirable to respectability. Deep in the Post's piece, Gene Rudd of the Christian Medical & Dental Associations asks, "What's the goal here? Is it to rid our society of Down babies?" The answer is yes. The story says that Down syndrome now occurs "in about 5,000 babies born each year." How many more years before it is zero?
