OTTAWA, January 11, 2007 (LifeSiteNews.com) In the same month, both the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (ACOG) and the Society of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists of Canada (SOGC) are recommending that all pregnant women, not just those over 35, should be screened, including with invasive procedures such as amniocentesis, to discover whether they have a risk of bearing a child with Downs Syndrome.

"Living Wills" are nothing but make-work for that class of parasites called lawyers. The same lawyers engineered the right-to-die laws that put patients in danger of their lives in the first place. They miss the irony of what they do. Lawyers are the bottom feeders of society, more detested than telemarketers and used car salesmen. If we have to choose who are worthy of life and who are useless eaters, lawyers will fill the tumbrels.
Thanks, BB. Remember Sophie's White Rose.
Here is a thread to wake up anyone still sleepy. Time for some bacon and eggs.
British plans to create cloned human embryos that contain small amounts of cow DNA have been set back by about a year, after regulators decided to gauge public opinion before granting any licences.
Scientists want to use cow eggs to create and study cloned embryos because human eggs are in desperately short supply. Injecting human DNA into animal eggs, creating a 'chimaera' mix of species, gets around this problem. The work could lead to new treatments for conditions such as Parkinson's disease, and the idea of creating chimaeras for research purposes is relatively uncontroversial among scientists. Researchers elsewhere, such as China, have done work with chimaeric embryos before.
Proposals for cow-human embryos put on hold

Didn't you like "yeech"? It's a legitimate spelling. English orthography can be feechin' nuts at times.
You should known better than mentioning Rosie O'Donnell at this hour. Let people have their good coffee and a doughnut before they have to face the seamier side of life.
I can't wait for "science" to devise a test for detecting future abortionists in time to do the right thing. /sarcasm
Thanks for dropping by. Terri's Legacy protects the downtrodden.
Uh huh. That's all you have to read about the man and you know he's about to preach a sermonette of death. Dr. Koons predictably went right to it. He is also as gullible as any other university type, accepting the media diagnosis of Terri Schiavo's PVS state.
I wonder why an Indiana reporter interviewed a California bioethicist about such matters? Haven't they any Hoosier killers to talk to? John Dillinger was from Indiana and Jim Jones had an Indiana background. Surely there is somebody left in that tradition.
