I'm feeling very passionate right now, but I'll try to restrain myself and write sensibly.
Last week, a man with a lot of followers tweeted that it is immoral to choose to have a baby with Down syndrome. I can't even speak his name and I won't give him the glory of doing so.
Immoral.
Unethical. Depraved. Corrupt. Nefarious. Shameless. Sinful.
Sinful?
How can it be sinful to choose life? Any life, regardless of diagnosis?
I know of people who refuse to kill spiders or flies, who prefer to catch them and release them outside. And this guy, he wants us to kill babies? And that's a more moral choice?
I could quote a lot of Bible verses about sin and also about the value of life. I could present scientific studies about the quality of life that Cade can expect to have. I could write thousands of words about morality and ethics.
Instead, I'll pose just this question...is this sinful?

Perfect pictures!! The only thing sinful is that they are sinfully cute!! And I feel sorry for that man (he who must not be named). He's the one missing out.
