New Medical Ethics: Designer Genes For Your Baby, and ‘after-birth’ Abortions

I can’t escape the incredible irony that humanity is descending into a new Dark Age even as we technologically advance at the most rapid rate in the history of our species.
However, we have apparently permitted a technocratic elite without a shred of morality and a warped sense of ethics to dictate our evolution … once again.
A Telegraph article entitled, “Genetically engineering ‘ethical’ babies is a moral obligation, says Oxford professor” cites the Editor-in-Chief of the Journal of Medical Ethics, Julian Savulescu, as advocating the arrival of genetic cleansing for those who might have a propensity toward “personality flaws.” And, furthermore, that this cleansing is a sign of good parenting and a strong concern for society.
Now, I’m sorry to issue an ad hominem attack right out of the gate, but since Savulescu introduces the subject of genetic evaluation, this guy’s family tree goes back to Romania (perhaps central – think Transylvania) – home to such distinguished rulers as Vlad the Impaler, Vlad’s descendant Prince Charles, and power-mad collectivist, Nicolae Ceau?escu. I’m not saying there is a direct genetic connection between this esteemed academic and brutal psychopaths, but perhaps we should encourage Savulescu to study himself first and foremost … just to be sure.
Anyway, we often like to say in the alternative media, “You can’t make this stuff up.” Well, someone has, and they are intruding upon our otherwise potentially sane reality.
The Journal of Medical Ethics has now set itself head and shoulders above the rest as the most Orwellian-named collective of openly bragging social engineers to which the medical profession has thusly given voice.
The first outlandish story that emerged was immediately lambasted even by some readers of alternative media for being a hoax, until it was fully documented to have come from the Journal’s own website: “after-birth abortions” up until the age of three. Because, after all, infants aren’t people, so experts must be right to pose the question, ‘Why should the baby live?’
Study authors Alberto Giubilini and Francesca Minerva, both from the University of Melbourne, state in their paper that ‘after-birth abortion’ (killing a newborn) should be permissible in all the cases where abortion is, including cases where the newborn is not disabled.’ They go on to say that while it is infanticide, they prefer not to call it that. Instead, they prefer the term ‘after-birth abortion’ — a term that avoids the true labeling of the proposed technique.
Authors of the paper write that simply being a human isn’t something that grants ‘a right to life’. It appears the paper authors believe that they are the ones who are to determine whether or not a human can live or die. Under this train of thought, then these ‘after-birth’ abortions are not limited to infants. (Source)
This line of thinking is echoed by Savulescu, who uses the inherent concern of parents to offer their children the best of what life has to offer as a reason for them to pre-determine what type of life has value, and which does not.
So where genetic selection aims to bring out a trait that clearly benefits an individual and society, we should allow parents the choice.
To do otherwise is to consign those who come after us to the ball and chain of our squeamishness and irrationality.
Indeed, when it comes to screening out personality flaws, such as potential alcoholism, psychopathy and disposition to violence, you could argue that people have a moral obligation to select ethically better children.
They are, after all, less likely to harm themselves and others. (Reader’s Digest)
It is also concerning that these comments were made to Reader’s Digest, which seems like a clear propaganda campaign to popularize the concept of “rational design,” as opposed to presenting it for peer-review in less widely read scholarly medical journals – even his own.
If the black-and-white deterministic view that a rational need to eradicate the potential to harm oneself or others based on countless variables sounds logical to you, then please consider where this type of thinking has invariably led: extermination by dictators. In other words, the ones doing the rationalizing are also very important in this equation.
So, just a quick quote from another self-proclaimed ethicist only concerned with the well being of society and for doing a service to those who might have a difficult life ahead of them:
He who is bodily and mentally not sound and deserving may not perpetuate this misfortune in the bodies of his children. The people’s state has to perform the most gigantic rearing-task here. One day, however, it will appear as a deed greater than the most victorious wars of our present bourgeois era. – Adolf Hitler, Mein Kampf (1924)
This philosophy which led to the estimated deaths of 350,000 Germans (including a few doctors/executioners hanged later at Nuremberg) is now believed to have been a precursor to the even more indiscriminate killing to follow, as indicated by this brief summary of the “T4 program” signed by Hitler in October of 1939 as a “mercy killing” of the sick and disabled.
Code named Aktion T 4, the Nazi euthanasia program to eliminate ‘life unworthy of life’ at first focused on newborns and very young children. Midwives and doctors were required to register children up to age three who showed symptoms of mental retardation, physical deformity, or other symptoms included on a questionnaire from the Reich Health Ministry. (emphasis added)
A decision on whether to allow the child to live was then made by three medical experts solely on the basis of the questionnaire, without any examination and without reading any medical records.
Each expert placed a + mark in red pencil or – mark in blue pencil under the term ‘treatment’ on a special form. A red plus mark meant a decision to kill the child. A blue minus sign meant a decision against killing. Three plus symbols resulted in a euthanasia warrant being issued and the transfer of the child to a ‘Children’s Specialty Department’ for death by injection or gradual starvation….
The Nazi euthanasia program quickly expanded to include older disabled children and adults. Hitler’s decree of October, 1939, typed on his personal stationary, enlarged ‘the authority of certain physicians to be designated by name in such manner that persons who, according to human judgment, are incurable can, upon a most careful diagnosis of their condition of sickness, be accorded a mercy death.’ (Source)
Of course, any involuntary form of euthanasia should more properly be called eugenics, which is invariably where this mental disorder of reasoning leads — that reasoning being that in order to value some humans, you must extinguish others.
The above historical example is not to highlight one single worst villain, but to demonstrate a worldview which keeps cropping up again and again within the halls of government-endorsed medicine and science.
In fact, eugenics has a long history established in America well before Hitler’s arrival … and apparently continues long after his death.
As noted in a piece of criticism linking some of the current euthanasia policies of the Netherlands with those that began in Nazi Germany and later morphed into open eugenics, Wesley J. Smith highlights:
It is important to note that throughout the years in which euthanasia was performed in Germany, whether as part of the officially sanctioned government program or otherwise, the government did not force doctors to kill. Participating doctors had become true believers, convinced they were performing a valuable medical service for their ‘patients’ and their country. (Source)
However, I’d much rather embrace technological advancement in a way that increases the options for self-determination, rather than breed a perpetual zombie race with happy smiles on their genetically designed faces and not a critical thought within their sterilized minds. Even if occasionally a Hitler, Stalin, Mao, or Pol Pot shows up, along with their enablers. Because with that same dangerous natural freedom, so too can minds of great wonder and peaceful intentions develop and hopefully offer an opportunity for sustained enlightenment of the human race.
Perhaps we should then focus more on revisiting history, where such heavenly ideas as designing the perfect human have only led us to hell; and seeing current parallels, learn to throw these ideas in the trash upon first sight.
Based on the poll numbers within the Telegraph report about Savulescu’s statements, wherein 80% of readers disagree with his argument, humanity shows at least some indication of learning from its past blind faith, and perhaps still has enough time to further increase its resistance against the virus of social engineers and their designer babies.

Its so sad…men playing God. Its so heart wrenching to see them go after babies.Its also so sad to see how I’m not surprised to the level or extent of these deranged immoral supposedly people.Glad though that at least the majority see this for what it is.
The ‘Alien Agenda’ is not the hoax that many have thought it to be.
“I missed being a cog in a giant delusion or part of a vast brutal experiment that eventually will destroy much of mankind.” -Gordan Duff, ‘Veterans Today’
http://www.veteranstoday.com/2012/06/14/the-strange-case-of-phil-schneider/
“Oh, the farmer loves his cattle and tries to keep them happy and producing. But he still milks and kills them for profit and food.” -Zen Gardner, ‘Just Wondering’
http://www.zengardner.com/the-case-for-alien-control-of-earth/
Across so many spheres we see; the rejection of human nature, hatred toward human dignity, and a war upon human innocence.
It IS an “Alien Agenda”!
There are many reports of ancient “Aliens”. One of the most striking is even recorded in the Bible, in Genesis 6.
Many modern commentators have remarked and speculated upon ancient artifacts and evidence.
The degree of truth in their speculations is difficult to measure. Though the evidence and artifacts are sound, their interpretations being largely speculation, should be suspect at least.
Moving closer to our own era along the linear time line, I find one period to be blatantly enigmatic.
“The Dark Ages”, a period of roughly 500 years, commencing from the fall of the Western Roman Empire, and culminating in the birth of the “Middle Ages” and European Christendom under The Holy Roman Empire.
Even today, it is a ‘Don’t look there’ epoch nearly unparallelled in human history.
Can you possibly even imagine, a span of 500 years; where in, and about we have no recorded history of what took place on the planet? Thus, it is refereed by “historians” as ‘The Dark Ages’.
It’s an enigmatic conundrum. We know what occurred prior to it. We have the records of ancient history. We have the records of the Roman Empire following the ancient history. Then in 500 A.D. silence. A silence of FIVE HUNDRED YEARS!
Archeeology, Anthropology, Geology, and other disciplines have investigated the mystery; and have set forth some sparse findings. They report intense and large migratory pasterns, and geological catastrophe.
From those we are given basically evidential “effects” that overtook mankind. The “cause” is yet an unknown.
What we do know is that when history once again began being recorded, “The Middle Ages” were in bloom. “Christendom” reigned in feudal Europe, and Papal Rome ruled the world.
What transpired to effect this change?
Many are familiar with those mysterious (and somewhat odd) paintings from the middle ages. Most are religious in nature, and many depict Unidentifiable Flying Objects.
Papal Rome can be accredited with some very challenging behavior. The wanton destruction of all former knowledge that could be gotten at is a blatant fact.
The re-writing and editing of much former history is another.
Moving into the later middle ages we find the conquests and wholesale slaughter and pillage of innocent and childlike humans across the globe.
How could they do it?
That conquistador legacy lives on to this very second! It is in full operation NOW, in many countries, by the descendants of those “Imperial Conquistadors”.
Many have tried with every possible means under the sun, to persuade the Vatican to open their archives and disclose their involvement and, or knowledge of “Alien Contact”. They never have.
The “Dark Ages” of which we know little to nothing, ploughed the ground, and sewed the seed for a “New World Order” that would emerge as “The Middle Ages”.
The emergence of that “New World Order” lasted thousands of years. We are now in it’s tail end; and, to a great extent, still captivated by it’s legacy.
If we only had clarity on those missing 500 years! We would be knowledgeable of so many answers.
The powers that be are heralding the dawning of another “New World Order”. One haunting question is: will this new world order be preceded by a “Dark Age”, as the last one was; and, are we about to enter into that “Dark Age” ?
Soni–very interesting observations! Just the fact that this “sanctified” piece of space called the Vatican can hide vast archives of valuable information and the world knows it and condones it is almost beyond comprehension. When will humanity get off its knees? Cognitive dissonance doesn’t begin to explain the depth of deceit humanity lives under. Seems it’s always been a dark age. People being maligned and executed for bringing out Truth, whether scientifically, historically or spiritually keeps on. Fish rot from the head down. Pope’s fish hat will never look the same, eh? Ha!
Your right Bro’
There’s much more than ‘cognitive dissonance’ at play in it all. The wholesale highjacking of critical thought.
There are few ‘history buffs’; and I wish there were more. I have at times given effort to bring to light the great debt that we owe to those ‘Critical Thinkers’ of “The Enlightenment”.
When we can absorb enough History as to be able to view the panorama at a glance; then we will easily recognize the great debt we owe to those thinkers of “The Enlightenment”.
It was their beliefs that were embraced by America’s founders, and brought forth the FIRST real freedom on this planet, that we can remember, and know of in certainty.
All the powers that be, were, and are, raged against those ideas; and, they still do.
Few Americans understand the legacy they were given. Not just by those “Enlightened Deists” but by those Philosophers of “The Enlightenment” who so influenced America’s founders.
When I hear the hypocritical bombastic wind bags of modern Televangelism; who, influence so many millions of Americans, claiming that “America was founded as a Christian Nation” it really Gauls me.
Nothing could be farther from the truth. Hell, every oppressive Nation of Europe was a ‘Christian Nation’. Enough of that deception! America was founded as a “Free Country”, and if you don’t see any difference, then do a quick read on The Spanish Inquisition.
America was founded by “Enlightened Deists” and that’s accurate history, and their own writings verify it. If any admire critical thinking, read Thomas Paine, Thomas Jefferson, and other Enlightened Deist writers from the ranks of America’s founders. Their words will wake you up!
Since those words were penned, the contrasts they so well observed and pointed out, between freedom and oppression, have been blurred. They have been relegated to the sphere of nostalgia and memorabilia by the re-emergence of oppressing forces.
Yet, their truth is sharp, and needs to be accessed once again.
Here is a place to begin your education on it, for those so enthused. – http://www.iep.utm.edu/amer-enl/
True. Religious hijacking just another age old ploy. The whole founding of “America” isn’t as it seems. While incredibly empowering Truths and precepts brought about this great experiment, the seeds of deception and corruption were also engineered in it, as evidenced by the occult roots so evident in the sanctified Freemasonic square called the District of (their goddess) Columbia. I don’t think “they” anticipated just how powerful such freedoms were and what they’d produce, but the same power and money boys went to work rt away harnessing it and steering it away from so much “light and truth”, as they always do. I think it was John Locke’s work that they followed when creating the constitution, so it wasn’t original, but they had the guts to put it into effect. But still, it was steered and the PTBs set up the US to do exactly what it’s doing, and the side effect of truly enlightened individuals they’ve always dealt with by marginalizing and eventually crushing them, once they’ve used their energy to turn their cogs. Sad, but such is history in this age of treason….as opposed to reason… The fact that we can see it is evidence there’s a true and better way, we just need this scum off the planet. Or get ourselves a new one..;)
PS Just found this…v. interesting and supplements your link: http://www.dsusd.k12.ca.us/users/scottsh/Sources%20of%20Ideas%20That%20Shaped%20the%20American%20Plan%20of%20Government.htm
Agreed, the vision was highjacked early on.
I would guess that the take-over coincided with the Free Masonic Lodge’s incorporating Satanism; shortly after, the U.S. Capital was moved from Philadelphia to the newly established (then) District of Columbia.
Interestingly, few give attention to that name. Of course, it incorporates the august reference to George Washington; but, what does The District of Columbia indicate? What is it’s ‘legal’ significance?
For that, and many other interesting anomalies one needs to access Papal Decrees.
Did they at the time of it’s naming ( Washington District of Columbia), and do they still, carry weight within Globalist circles? It would appear so.
The Papal Bull Inter Caetera and the Treaty of Tordesillas (1493-1494)
Many people do not know that when Christopher Columbus “discovered” the Americas, they already legally belonged to Portugal. According to previous papal bulls of the 15th century, Portugal held claim to any and all undiscovered lands west of a certain longitude.
After Columbus’ return, both Spain and Portugal laid claims to the new lands, forcing the pope to sort things out.
Pope Alexander VI issued the bull Inter Calera in 1493, declaring that Spain owned all new lands west of a line 100 leagues (about 300 miles) from the Cape Verde Islands.
Portugal, not pleased with the verdict, pressed the issue and the two nations ratified the Treaty of Tordesillas in 1494, which established the line at 370 leagues from the islands.
This treaty essentially ceded Brazil to the Portuguese while keeping the rest of the New World for Spain.
The Spanish ‘New World’ ? “Columbia” !
Interesting. Funny, Columbus wasn’t even his name, they switched it so they could use the goddess Columbia’s name. Isis, Ishtar etc. redux–the Babylon imprint rolls on…
It’s so incredibly painful to witness truly brilliant souls who have invested their entire lives in bettering the world, only to have their work COMPLETELY decimated and/or ignored by TPTB, and therefore the general populace. There have been so many – Bucky Fuller, Nikola Tesla, Jacque Fresco, on and on and on the list goes – entire lifetimes of magnificent work and for what one might ask?
How does it fit into the grand scheme of things today, knowing that if these geniuses were allowed to uplift civilization as they should have been, our world would be completely and utterly different today.
And the youth, who have never even heard of these men (and women), let alone understand their works, instead obsessing on fashion, useless technology, music, sports, etc.
Does make one wonder what it’s all about. To put it another way, if it all changed for the better today, overnight, I would still be saddened by the loss of centuries upon centuries of these marvelous efforts from our collective past…….
So true, Gus. Lotta heartbreak. But there’s lotsa healing to be had once people tap into true consciousness. Amazing how humanity trudges on…but how easily we’re misled. Quite a trip.
Earth life is for learning how to navigate wormholes between worlds, how to operate the infinite elevator…
The open heart is the pilot , reading the instrument panel and all the signs…
Fresco, Tesla and Fuller would probably tell you that it was only natural to happen this way and couldn’t happen any other way.
The monetary system, democracy and elitism are just natural states that had to occur for our race to reduce the imprint of the ego in the genetic code.
Oh yeah, we could’ve been there much earlier, but we haven’t, and it is because of how life itself evolved, the challenges that our race has found in its path is what made us how we are as a civilization today. Those who rule us are only a byproduct of this.
And we’ll either evolve and concentrate in making better human beings with the proper development, the proper environment for this development to occur, or we’ll perish.
But whatever the outcome, it couldn’t have happened any other way than it has. Fresco himself said something very similar to this. And Tesla believed that we wouldn’t accept new knowledge until we would be ready (paraphrasing).
