@nolwino This is to your evolution, picking mate thing. Humans also have these things called contraceptives. We also have pills that prevent implantation. Because we have evolved brains, we can make decisions for ourselves like who we have sex with that we are all very aware could result in a pregnancy. There's such a thing as personal responsibility. As to Down Syndrome, because you are disabled and hate yourself, you're projecting that onto the unborn. Most Down Syndrome children born now are self sufficient. The reason they weren't in generations past is because they were hidden and not taught. Society viewed them as unable to learn. That's not true. Those that grew up, especially after Gen X, went to school, got an education, and are able to live alone. Tossing someone away because they aren't perfect is detrimental to the gene pool. A wide variety of different genes creates a stronger species. As a species evolves, those evolutions will be seen as birth defects because they are different. So eliminating every possible pregnancy that has a birth "defect" will prevent the species from advancing. Unfortunately society goes through periods were it tries to create and force perfection. The group lead by the funny mustache man wasn't unique at that time in that endeavor. Those periods of time are always looked back at in horror and as unethical. Just because we're living in such a time now, doesn't mean everyone has to be forced to participate. Edit: Sickle Cell isn't a birth defect. It's only an issue in the west. It's an evolutionary response to malaria. People born in areas with malaria it's a bonus, not a defect. Hence my advancement point. You clearly aren't a person that needs to be deciding what is and isn't a defect.
