Gay babies

The [Rev. R. Albert Mohler Jr.] president of the leading Southern Baptist seminary has incurred sharp attacks from both the left and right by suggesting that a biological basis for homosexuality may be proven and that prenatal treatment to reverse gay orientation would be biblically justified.

Mohler's argument was endorsed by a prominent Roman Catholic thinker, the Rev. Joseph Fessio, provost of Ave Maria University in Naples, Fla., and editor of Ignatius Press, Pope Benedict XVI's U.S. publisher.

"Same-sex activity is considered disordered," Fessio said. "If there are ways of detecting diseases or disorders of children in the womb, and a way of treating them that respected the dignity of the child and mother, it would be a wonderful advancement of science."

This raises a number of interesting questions. How many parents, if given the choice, would choose to have a gay child? What happens to the political power of the far-left gay community if their numbers decrease?

I'd have less of a problem seeing the gay fetuses aborted than seeing a generation of stepford kids who will never know romantic love or physical attraction.

I'd be perfectly willing to kill to avoid the latter situation
