Dr. Peter McParland, an ob-gyn at National    Maternity Hospital, the largest maternity hospital in Ireland,    affirmed, \"In Iceland every single baby  100 percent of all    those diagnosed with Down's syndrome  are aborted.\"  <\/p>\n<p>    A    recent BBC documentary, \"A    World Without Down's Syndrome,\" gives an in-depth look at    the family life of actress Sally Phillips, whose whole family    is blessed by raising a child with Down's syndrome. According    to Phillips, the purpose of the film is to ask, \"What kind of    society do we want to live in, and who do we think should be    allowed to live in it?\"  <\/p>\n<p>    Phillips    also wanted to show the public that raising a child with Down's    syndrome is \"not only manageable but also an enjoyable    experience.\" This is backed by polls, which showthat most families are    enriched by caring for special-needs babies.  <\/p>\n<p>        The    BBC documentary exposes the fact that in the United Kingdom, 90    percent of babies diagnosed with Down's Syndrome are aborted.    Denmark is aborting 98 percent of their Down's Syndrome babies,    while roughly 90 percent of babies with that condition are    killed annually in the United States.  <\/p>\n<p>    Oklahoma    is but one state pushing back against this holocaust. Last week    the state's House of Representatives passed the Prenatal Nondiscrimination Act    of 2017. It still has a long way to go before becoming law, and    the majority of other states need to do likewise.  <\/p>\n<p>    In answering Phillip's question  \"What kind of society do we    want to live in?\"  there are some societies that practiced    eugenics, thinking it was in their best interest to do so. One    such society was Egypt in the days of Moses.  <\/p>\n<p>    In    Exodus 1:16, Pharaoh orders    the midwives, \"When you shall do the office of midwives to the    Hebrew women, and the time of delivery is come: if it be a man    child, kill it: if a woman, keep it alive.\" Pharaoh, like the    Communist leaders in today's China, decided who lives based on    sex. Like Nazi Germany, Egypt decided who should live based on    race.  <\/p>\n<p>    Thank God \"the midwives feared God, and did not do as the king    of Egypt had commanded, but saved the men children\"; for    as we read further in Exodus, Moses was saved because of it. He    went on to be God's instrument for establishing the nation of    Israel from which Christ would come.  <\/p>\n<p>    God's    plans with individuals are far bigger and nobler than our human    plans. As God says through the prophet Isaiah 55:8: \"For    my thoughts are not your thoughts: nor your ways my ways, saith    the Lord. For as the heavens are exalted above the earth, so    are my ways exalted above your ways, and my thoughts above your    thoughts.\"  <\/p>\n<p>    Watch the panel discuss the slaughter of the imperfect    in The DownloadModern-Day Eugenics.  <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>    Have    a news tip?
