To validate what I said in my Perfect Persecution posting, I found a website for Peter Singer. What do you think of the title of this book that he lists “Should the Baby Live? The Problem of Handicapped Infants (co-author with Helga Kuhse), Oxford University Press, Oxford, 1985; Oxford University Press, New York, 1986; Gregg Revivals, Aldershot, Hampshire, 1994
You would not believe the lists of accolades this man gets and the number of publications he has written in. See for yourself here. I am not making this stuff up.
If you want to be HORRIFIED read his FAQ sheet – in particularly the questions pertaining to sanctity of life. He states on the world wide web that babies (yes full term infants) are not people. They have no personhood. He tries to patronize some niceties into what he says but the truth is blaringly obvious. He say’s one has to be consious of their self existence to be a “person”. As you well know, this describes babies, the disabled and the elderly. Of course he still calls murder “wrong” if the person was wanted. Like that? Our value is determined by who loves and wants us? I realize there are many “crazies” in the world but this particular guy has a public voice. At the moment so do I and I will use mine also.
*He does have an email address and no I do not intend to attempt dialogue with him. Where in the world would I even start? Absolutely unreal!

I just read the FAQ and am just stumped… I hardly know what to say to yet let alone to him. So babies are human but not people… WHAT A SICKO! This is one of the biggest deceptions to enter science and the medical field as we know it. He has no regard for life or God’s hand in life… especially if that life is unwanted. This man is playing God and teaching others to do the same. Will he ever have a harsh reality to face come the day he personally faces eternity… what a way for souls to be robbed of an opportunity meet heaven’s open arms.
Had to check on my son… but I keep thinking of the scriptures that the enemy of our souls comes to steal, to kill, to destroy… he roams the earth like a lion seeking whom he can devour. Theories like this man Peter is sharing, encouraging, teaching (as if fact!) fit the description of the above… it is one more way that our lives can be stolen & destroyed. It is frightening to think this theory has any place whatsoever and that such a man could receive accolades for his work. God warns us in the Bible not to be deceived – to be sober and vigilant. Be sober friends – do not be swayed when you hear words that make life any less precious than God describes it as being in HIS word, the Truth… precious, valuable, treasured, fearfully & wonderfully made, known by Him before we were named, carefully knit together in our mother’s wombs, in His image. Anything less is tainted by deception.
Well said!
