Doctors are often wrong. I see stories every day from people who said "the doctors said i would never live! And look at me now!" or "The doctors told us he would be a vegetable...today he graduates high school!"
Thats great. Now have you ever read the stories of doctors telling the parents that their child will not be healthy, and will infact live in pain, suffering, misery and agony which words can only simply describe, but those words never bring to justice the actual feeling of said pain because its that excruciating, but the parents decided to give the child "a chance", in which the child did infact live, but by live I mean be literally a husk of a human where no feelings of happiness, joy, comfort existed, only raw, unadulterated suffering through torment, something no child should ever ever ever have to live through, eeking out every painful second by second until they are finally blessed with death so as to be released from the nightmare from which there was no waking up? Followed up by the pain of the family, who not only had to suffer through the death of a child, but also their own slow torment and agony in poverty because they couldn't afford the medical bills tacked onto keeping that child alive and suffering until God graced the child with a release from the pain?
Yeah, you don't read those stories do you?
And why would you? They depress the heck out of me.
We shouldn't terminate life based upon a scenario that MIGHT take place. We shouldn't abort babies based on the fact that they have a good chance of being criminal, we shouldn't kill babies that might have medical issues. This sort of thing is not allowed in our courts of law, where people don't get to second guess or make judgements based upon heresay or conjecture...we won't execute CRIMINALS on such flimsy stuff, why on earth should we execute babies?
A) since when was there ever a medical condition, or fact base din medical research that determines the probability that an unborn fetus will become a criminal?
B) we don't execute people because they're criminals. Everyone purports some crime in their lifetime and we don't execute them.
C) youre suggesting that if a child has absolutely zero chance of living a happy, healthy life, we should make it suffer through its own existence?
