Last
year, the Journal of Medical Ethics–a reliable fount of
radicalism–published an article promoting “after-birth” abortion, e.g.,

“If
criteria such as the costs (social, psychological, economic) for the
potential parents are good enough reasons for having an abortion even
when the fetus is healthy, if the moral status of the newborn is the
same as that of the foetus and if neither has any moral value by virtue
of being a potential person, then the same reasons which justify
abortion should also justify the killing of the potential person when it
is at the stage of a newborn.”
