Hmm, let's see what you've already said on this thread:

Babies born that premature will probably suffer lifelong disabilities, if they survive. Brain damage, blindness, MD, and numerous other problems.

Sometimes it's just best to let them go.

And

I think people are getting to be so selfish about their own feelings they are willing to keep someone alive, regardless of the quality of that life, for their own emotional crutch.

We see it with people who won't let family die (ie. Terri Schiavo) and we see it in premature babies.

Sounds to me like you're in favor of killing off the weak and unwanted.
But, is the withholding of medical care the same thing as killing someone?

And, more in line with the topic of abortion, is the withholding of a female host from a fertilized egg the same thing as killing someone?
