Gee, wasn't Beethoven deaf?

And what about Steven Hawkings?

I'm sure if someone really tries, we could find countless other examples of people with disabilities who have been gifted in other areas and made great contributions to humanity. How shallow to want physical perfection above all else.

My father was born with a club foot. I guess it's a great thing that he wasn't born today.

I could hardly read the whole article. Most human bodies have a little something "wrong" - poor eyesight, stuttering, asymmetry here or there. Maybe an extra or missing finger or toe, one leg slightly shorter than the other.

A perfect body does not make a human being perfect. We're more than the body. The inner person - the soul - is the real source of beauty. The cruel so-called parents who kill a child because of some physical imperfection are the ugliest of all.

This is really horrifying. They are true disciples of Peter Singer.
