NBC’s Nancy Snyderman: It’s ‘Pro-Science’ to Abort Children With Genetic Defects

doofiegirl POTL~PWCM~JLA 2012/06/10 10:32:38
On Friday’s NBC Today, chief medical editor Nancy Snyderman explained to viewers that it’s just good science to abort an unborn child that may have a genetic disorder, explaining that testing for such conditions, “gives parents a chance to decide whether they’re going to continue that pregnancy or not. This is the science of today.” [Listen to the audio or watch the video after the jump ]http://conservativebyte.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/2012-...

Snyderman then predicted: “I think the future will be such that you’ll find out that your child may have a genetic hit. You can fix that genetic problem, and improve your chance, a child’s chance…” When co-host Savannah Guthrie raised ethical questions about aborting children under such circumstances, Snyderman matter-of-factly replied: “Well, I’m pro-science, so I believe that this is a great way to prevent diseases." http://conservativebyte.com/2012/06/nbcs-nancy-snyderman-its-...

    "This is the science of today." One that has no ethical boundaries anymore and values one life over another. So what if they had had this technology before and someone like Stephen Hawking got aborted? What then? "Oh we just happened to ABORT one of the most intellectual scientific minds of our time."

    That's my point. You may inadvertently KILL someone who could have had some kind of drastically positive effect on the world.

    "Seig Heil!"
    Attention: Eugenics believers. Only 200 fifty Million people are to prove worthy to live on Gahia (Earth), a place that get's overly stressed when more people live there. At all cost we must KILL the stupid and the "SUB-PAR" individuals. Only the best and the brightest can possibly be chosen to survive. Read Margret Sanger;s 1939 "Solving the Negro Problem" ( also known by other names)..... Racism by any other name smells so sweet to the Liberal, Marxust and Communist. hearts
    Sorry, this is obhorent to me, but you had best understand what Eugenics is and understand their final goals. The NAZI Joe Stalin and all the Communist and Socialist and Marxists have an Eugenics element in them

    Not too concerned with one's motivations or reasons, here. Abort if you're going to-- no need to explain yourself to anyone.

    It's murder, regardless of what kind of a twisted excuse is used. i have a good friend who got pregnant at 35. FIVE different doctors told her, and her husband that she should have her baby aborted, because his physical disabilities were going to be atrocious. They kept telling them this throughout her pregnancy. "He's going to be born with deformed limbs," He's going to be born a vegetable," "He's going to be born so physically damaged he'll never survive." They prayed about it, and many people prayed for them. They refused to take the advice of the doctors. That baby was born, and he was PERFECT. He was one of the most beautiful newborns I've ever seen. He grew up to be a beautiful, extremely, above average in EVERY WAY, sweet boy. He's not only a genius, he's athletic, and so good looking that my friend has been approached to put him into modeling. "Gabriel," is alive and well today, because my friend couldn't and wouldn't kill her baby.

    He's 12 years old, and is the epitome of a healthy child. He's unbelievably beautiful, inside and out, and he is seriously a genius. I'll hug him for you the next time I see him.

    What a cold-hearted witch Ms. Snyderman really is. This is what you get when "science" ignores God. "Science" *is not* value-free. There is no such thing as "non-practical knowledge," nor any sort of "disinterested" action. Behold the Progressive who calls for the use of science in the service of death!

    Man playing God isn't a good idea, especially in this case.

    I don't see a problem with parents getting a heads up on possible problems there kids may have.
