A Disturbing Step Towards Eugenics
Wednesday, February 07 2007The February 5th recommendation of the Society of Obstetricians and Gynecologists of Canada (SOGC) for all pregnant women to be offered non-invasive prenatal genetic screening is a disturbing step towards eugenics in our society, according to Catholic Organization for Life and Family (COLF).
In response, COLF calls upon all Canadians, especially obstetricians, gynecologists and expectant parents, to uphold the inherent worth and dignity of every human life and to protect the basic human rights of the disabled, including first and foremost their right to be born.
