Abort Democrat babies? Pro-abortion folks, mostly Democrats, are already doing that.
My first thought but more than half.
The babies or the polled people?.......................
“One third of Americans are okay with selecting and destroying their children as embryos based on DNA tests that predict their likelihood of being smart enough to attend a top-tier college.”
Brown or Bust?
Woah! I was going to post the same thing!
The 1/3 are utter fools wishing for their own death.
For the USA top tier (25 highest universities) the average IO is above 140.

The percentage of any population above 140 is estimated that 0.25 to 1.0 percent.
SO nearly all of the 33% ok with this should be dead already!
This is the spiritual blindness we live in today.
Many Americans show signs of LI. 😵
“we would eliminate over half of the Democrat party.”
Not just over 1/2. about 85-90%
one step away from Nazi final solution if you ask me.
There’s millions of grown up babies out there this could apply to...
More like 90%
The base and false-scientific appeal of eugenics has always existed. The words of people like Sanger and Himmler in the 20th century made some sense to those using the over-simplified logic of perverted science.
Christianity resists this thinking
Not merely out of compassion, but because it is absolutely un-scientific (no one will never statistically “improve the population” by empowering corporations and government bureaucrats to select and kill people for profit or political fantasy).
But moreover, the consequences to society for having such a political/social system will be brutal to everyone alive as well.
It would have eliminated over the half of the respondents to the damn poll...
How do you determine an unborn baby’s intelligence? With genetic testing? How’s that going to go over? - there is a very strong correlation between intelligence and race.
Also, these insane people would be devising a test to find out if the unborn baby “is” trans. Babies “found to be” trans would be spared.
[No one is trans. Some people delude themselves into thinking they are trans.]
Don't these parents realize that genetic intelligence comes from THEM????? They are the idiots producing the low IQ baby. LOL.
How well does IQ equate to moral and wise? I’m not sure there is much of one. I’ll take a society of mostly wise, virtuous people regardless of the average IQ.
Not OK, but I *was* going to say that this would be a great way of ensuring that the Democrats go pro-life: tell them that abortion will weed out stupid people.
Just how do they think DNA would indicate how intelligent an embryo was? Spell out, “smart kid” like Charlotte’s Web?
Even if this was acceptable (it isn’t), I wouldn’t trust them to get the results right.
When my wife was pregnant with child #5, they told us some test indicted a significant possibility of Downs, and they gave us information on abortion. We politely told them we weren’t interested. We were ready for whatever God gave us.
She was valedictorian of her high school class and has a 4.0 through 2-1/2 years of college. Granted, she was probably the 4th-most academically gifted among our six kids. Her brother (child #3) still gives her a hard time because there were at least 4 kids in his class who would have been top of her class.
Small schools (average class size of 30) can vary a lot like that. Our two others who might have been competitive went to a much larger school (class size 300). Our youngest one (senior this year) is up against a kid who got a 36 on the ACT, and then took it again for fun (and got another 36.)
