Children are no longer seen as gifts from God, bearing their creator’s image, but commodities to be picked through and discarded until a suitable specimen is found. This isn’t particularly surprising: it is one of the inevitable consequences of discarding Judeo-Christian ethics and replacing them with if it makes me feel good, it is good relativism.
From here:
A married couple who aborted twin boys the wife was expecting after IVF treatment have gone to court to choose the sex of their next child – because they want a girl.
The husband and wife already have three sons and said they now want to have a girl after their baby daughter died soon after birth.
They are both aged in their 30s and have taken their case to a legal tribunal after an independent medical body known as the Patient Review Panel rejected their bid to choose the gender of their next child using IVF.
The couple said they had made the decision to terminate the twin boys but could not continue to have unlimited numbers of children.
