Newborn babies are not “actual persons” and do not have a “moral right to life”
The comeback of genocide, also known as eugenics is here. Eugenics is a creation of the left here in America. It is completely a part of the Progressive Movement. That is an absolute truth. Adolf Hitler was a big fan of eugenics and the Progressives vision for the world, and he put this in to practice with what is commonly known as The Final Solution. Eugenics is, by all rights, commonly known as “ethnic cleansing.” Again, this comes straight from the American left, specifically the progressives. Barack Obama it is believed, is an advocate of this practice.
via The Telegraph:
The article, published in the Journal of Medical Ethics, says newborn babies are not “actual persons” and do not have a “moral right to life”. The academics also argue that parents should be able to have their baby killed if it turns out to be disabled when it is born.
The journal’s editor, Prof Julian Savulescu, director of the Oxford Uehiro Centre for Practical Ethics, said the article’s authors had received death threats since publishing the article. He said those who made abusive and threatening posts about the study were “fanatics opposed to the very values of a liberal society”.
The article, entitled “After-birth abortion: Why should the baby live?”, was written by two of Prof Savulescu’s former associates, Alberto Giubilini and Francesca Minerva.
They argued: “The moral status of an infant is equivalent to that of a fetus in the sense that both lack those properties that justify the attribution of a right to life to an individual.”
Rather than being “actual persons”, newborns were “potential persons”. They explained: “Both a fetus and a newborn certainly are human beings and potential persons, but neither is a ‘person’ in the sense of ‘subject of a moral right to life’.
This is crazy talk, insanity. Justifying genocide/ethnic cleansing.
Believing a baby has the right to life is fanatical? No, believing it doesn’t is fanatical. Once again the progressives have set the narrative, doing their usual which is trying to paint the abnormal as normal, and those that are normal, as abnormal. It’s always opposite day with the progressives.
Unfortunately, this final solution mentality is gaining traction, both here in the United States, and the rest of the world.
Never again?
Don’t bet on it. History always repeats itself, because too many people fail to learn its lessons.
