According to Dawkins, the issue of who should be born comes down to a calculation based upon possible suffering. "Yes. Suffering should be avoided. [The abortion] cause[s] no suffering. Reduce suffering wherever you can."

What a bastard.

I wouldn’t want to be alone with him in an elevator. He’s frightening.

How can he know if another being is "suffereing?"

Because he's God?

Hi Richard. My name is Michael. And I'm smart enough to know you're wrong. Completely and totally wrong. But God still loves you ... and me!

Stunning! A man of his learning and he has no idea what the functions of the brain and spinal cord are, no clue what a nervous system is! I’m shocked; disgusted, too, to be sure, but shocked beyond belief!

Logical consequence of believing in “SURVIVAL OF THE FITTEST”.

Strange that an atheist should tell the rest of us what is moral and immoral. If there is no God then nothing is immoral.

RE: Richard Dawkins: choosing NOT to abort baby with Down syndrome is ‘immoral’

For a man who believes that we are nothing but the result of the random collision of molecules, I find this talk about morality irrational.

Why is for instance, the random collision of atoms called the Nazis destroying the random collision of atoms called the Jews immoral? It’s just nature taking its course...

And that’s why you don’t put atheists in charge of morality.

This scumbag calling my cousin and her husband Joe, a wonderful father and Nam vet, immoral is sickening. I’d spit in his eye if I ever came across him.

So, in his view, a country is civilized if it approves of murdering innocents?

The fact that he sees nothing wrong with that proves how soul-sick and blackly evil he is.

Not aborting a baby is immoral.

Satan couldn’t have said it any better.

I have been around adults with Down Syndrome. They are happy. The people I was exposed to had make work jobs that gave them a sense of accomplishment and satisfaction. They had pride in that work. I had pride in them.

They felt friendship being around others like them. They went to movies together, out bowling, out eating. In simple terms, they lived happy fulfilled lives.

These people recognize their limitations. They’re okay with them, accepting is a better word for it.

Why would I deny them access to happiness?

Dawkins is revealing once again that he is ignorant on an issue. This time it involves the life of some of the most delightful people you’ll ever meet.
