As we approach the 41st anniversary of Roe v. Wade, the Supreme Court decision divining an absolute right to abortion in the U.S. Constitution, we would do well to pause and consider the impact of this monumental ruling and assess what it means for us in the days ahead. <\/p>\n
One thing we know for sure: Roehas wrought a lot of dead babies. The United States is the well-established leader for abortion rates in the western world. <\/p>\n
To be more precise, statistics reveal legalized abortion has led to the demise of countless unwanted babies. A vast majority of reported abortions in the U.S. are elective. According to information supplied by the Guttmacher Institute, a pro-abortion research group, 92 percent of abortions in America have nothing to do with rape or incest or the health of the mother. Those lives are exterminated as a matter of convenience. <\/p>\n
This governmental authorization of abortion on demand is horrifying enough, but unless we begin to appreciate abortion for what it is, the future promises even greater devaluing of life. <\/p>\n
Coupled with staggering advancements in DNA research, the \"right\" to abortion is on the cusp of facilitating full-fledged eugenics. In addition to being elective, abortions are now becoming selective. <\/p>\n
Trends show that as many as 90 percent of unborn children diagnosed with Down syndrome are aborted. Obviously, that's not a coincidence. It is the discovery of the extra chromosome that dooms these babies to never live outside the womb. <\/p>\n

This all-too-common practice is a blatant violation of human rights. <\/p>\n
And detection of Down syndrome is just the tip of the iceberg with available testing. Geneticists boast of over 2000 tests for pegging \"genetic disorders.\" As of today, that vague determination primarily relates to disabling conditions, like Down syndrome or spina bifida; tomorrow, the term could just as easily describe projected height or hair color. <\/p>\n
