Life Qutoe: "As many as an estimated nine out of ten children with Down syndrome are aborted in the womb, sought out by increasingly sophisticated prenatal tests and eliminated as too flawed, too burdensome, too different to live. This is the ugly eugenic underbelly of American life, even as we congratulate ourselves on our tolerance and diversity." Rich Lowry, columnist This "Life Quote" is from Lutherans For Life – www.lutheransforlife.org.
