Parents Are Choosing Which Babies Live and Die Based on . . . Eye Color
Yes, this is real. Parents utilizing “boutique” genetic testing services are sorting their embryos—living human beings—based on IQ, gender, chance of future illness, and even. . . eye color! Those embryos that don’t match what the parents want are either discarded as medical waste or indefinitely frozen.
What a callous world we live in where unborn children made in the image of God are treated like customizable and disposable products, rather than precious image bearers, fearfully and wonderfully knit together by God and given as a good gift from him.
Our Answers News team recently discussed this topic with Katy Faust of Them Before Us, a children’s rights organization. It was a fascinating conversation that started with a discussion of “robot wombs.” You won’t want to miss it.
Thanks for stopping by and thanks for praying,
Ken
