That Was Then . . . This is Now? A Nazi Nightmare

Excerpt:
The German practice of euthanizing those considered unworthy of life did not begin with the Third Reich. German doctors began the practice under the liberal Weimar Republic, with doctors defining those considered inferior as Lebensunwerten Lebens -- life unworthy of life.

Those identified as Lebensunwerten Lebens were simply killed -- sometimes after being subjected to inhumane medical experiments.

How is this definitively different from the current practice of selecting out "inferior" embryos or of aborting "defective" babies in the womb? These, too, are assaults on human dignity. How long will it be before some later generation excavates our own moral landscape?
