Your clinical credentials, please? Cyphergirl is a good and decent person based on her posts who shared something incredibly personal and this is what your response is? You deserve the scorn and derision that only the cruel should receive.
The article says that the “tests” to determine if the baby is horribly deformed and suffering may not have been done, it also, rightly says- that the woman is not a corpse-otherwise the baby would be dead, or , are you, as some others on this thread, saying that the baby is dead?
I am very uncomfortable with hearing the terms "dead", "corpse", and "rotting corpse" being used to refer to people who are still alive-even if its via artificial means- this appears to be latest attempt of the death lobby to diminish and devalue human life, in order to further their agenda.
After all these years, that I am still completely outraged by the gross, cruel, unjust murder of Terri Schindler. I have very little patience/ tolerance for the opposing side.
They tend to lie, and twist, and confuse the point. They usually have no interest in checking the facts, running tests, at least considering giving the person a chance to live, exc... They have an agenda. Their goal is to end lives.
Perhaps, before you question the credentials of social conservatives to resist the emotionalism that underlies the judicial order to execute an unborn child, you might give us your professional credentials as to the defense of the unborn from the ravenous blood lust of the official organs of the medical profession from 1973 (or even earlier) onward to free doctors to earn fees killing babies in utero at the command of their mothers (or in this case other family members) and to recognize some sort of total "freedom" of doctors to do as they please even when that includes killing.
Do you attend meetings of medical associations to restore the traditional commitment of your profession to preserve innocent life and refuse co-operation in the killing of the unborn? Become a delegate to state or national medical conventions to change their baby-killing policy? Write articles for peer-reviewed professional and scholarly journals to urge restoration of your profession as one that fosters the protection of innocent life? Have you any credentials whatsoever to include yourself rhetorically as part of a pro-life "us?"
I did not think so.
Instead, you rise to the defense of emotionalism expressed in support of a freedom for doctors and "family" members that is not morally theirs. Those who resist babykilling are just "inhuman" and deserving of "scorn and derision" for resisting Herod Blackmun's mass-murdering stupidity. If that means that pro-lifers (the actual ones) must suffer the disparagement meted out by NARAL, Planned Barrenhood and such as the American Medical Association and OB-GYN groups (professionally interested as they are in preserving Roe vs. Wade), we actual pro-lifers will get along somehow and wear that disparagement as a badge of honor. The murdered babies? Not so much!
Doctors typically shun their abortionist colleagues socially and professionally but refuse to expel them from the medical profession. That tells us as much as we need to know about today's medical profession on the subject. Until those expulsions are routine and permanent, don't expect respect as a profession from those who remember the Hippocratic Oath that governed your profession from the time of pagan Greece until your profession wanted to reject its traditions to whore after the approval of the worst in our society. If that sounds "cruel" or "inhuman" to you, too bad! If the label "death lobby" fits, wear it!
Scorn??? Derision??? Bring it on!
Certainly there are doctors who deserve respect but that is on an individual basis and no longer attributable to the profession itself. Res ipsa loquitur.
