The hits just keep on coming.
Some doctors want to figure out a way to take eggs from aborted girls and use them to impregnate sterile women.
My favorite part of the article is this statement from some doctors who decided to look into the ethics of such a procedure:
"After a public consultation, we decided that it would be difficult for any child to come to terms with being created using aborted foetal material because of prevailing social attitudes."
That's priceless. I like the subtle move to turn revulsion at this idea into "prevailing social attitudes." In what sort of society, pray tell, would we find a person so callous that he is perfectly content to hear that his mother was killed off before she ever had the chance to take her first breath.
This is a particularly sticky situation for advocates of abortion. It's a bit hard to deny personhood to a creature with the ability to procreate (albeit in a very odd way). Plus, how do you justify the girl's death to her son or daughter if she was healthy enough to pass on her genes?
If this isn't enough for you, check out these stomach-turning rituals that women are now using to somehow cleanse themselves of the decision to abort their children. There's so much guilt here, and yet such a phony attempt to push it aside using the rhetoric of potential life and what it, let's face it, really stupid and shallow symbolism.
