“After-birth abortion”

February 28, 2012 by Andrea Mrozek 2 Comments

I will be discussing this on Charles Adler’s show on Sun TV tonight:

Abstract

Abortion is largely accepted even for reasons that do not have anything to do with the fetus’ health. By showing that (1) both fetuses and newborns do not have the same moral status as actual persons, (2) the fact that both are potential persons is morally irrelevant and (3) adoption is not always in the best interest of actual people, the authors argue that what we call ‘after-birth abortion’ (killing a newborn) should be permissible in all the cases where abortion is, including cases where the newborn is not disabled.

    I’ve come across this article a couple of times. I keep thinking it’s from The Onion.

    It makes perfect sense. They’re just taking the pro-choice position to its logical conclusion.

    There truly is no substantial difference between a fetus and a newborn infant. Which is what pro-lifers have been saying all along.
