Absolutely. The left would be totally opposed to babies being aborted if they had the “gay” or “fat” genes.

Ah, I love how the cheery headline makes it seem as though Downs is being miraculously cured through some means other than murder.

what about using a gene splicer machine to alter a person’s gene’s at will. Want blond hair? presto, gene edited blond hair.

As the Christian theologian R.C. Sproul says, “The norm becomes the normative. In other words,” he goes on to explain, “what is accepted soon becomes acceptable.”

I ave know hundreds of Downs people. They were every single one an absolute blessing for their families. The death of these magnificent people is the murder of angels.

With genetic engineering, it’s coming real fast.

Prenatal genetic repair would be worth celebrating. This is eugenics.

It all starts when you reject God and continues from there. You can’t say “life is grey” when you have a God who has given you rules that are black and white.

Sound like they had to visit the lil boys room but had a stool softener so it ok.
Inside the country where Down syndrome is disappearing...
Inside the country where every person who is found to be defective genetically is drowned in saline solution then has its head and arms forcable ripped from its body.
Oh yeah. That sounds like a great place to live. Where do I sign up for my blood test?

Using an ultrasound, blood test and the mother's age, the test, called the Combination Test, determines whether the fetus will have a chromosome abnormality, the most common of which results in Down syndrome.
So it sounds to me like they're just guessing. They don't know the kid has Dawn's, they just find a few factors that don't rule it out, and kill him anyway.

Genetic screening, I should think, is downstream (or up-slope to use your terms) from abortion on demand, which is completely unselective for abnormality.
