I dislike intensely the politics of most groups, secular and religious alike, when it comes to issues like abortion. Behind the name calling and finger pointing of both sides, somehow in the heat of the argument, we seem to quickly degenerate into the land of the inhumane. And no one benefits from that.
So, most of the time, I would rather allow this blog to be simply the story of what one family is learning, existing for those who will find it when they need it the most.
But....
....there are times when I feel the urgency of a message that must be heard because it is not only the message of an extra chromosome, but is also the heartfelt cry of us all.
Please don't destroy me because I am not like you.
This week Kurt Kondrich has written a thoughtful article entitled "Eugenics as a Human Right?" As you read it, can you help but ask yourself, "When will they come for me?"
In the meantime, while you're thinking, take a detour over here "In Honor of Carissa" and just for a moment allow yourself to imagine: What if everyone thought like Carissa? Would the world be more, or less, perfect?
