But one man's disease is another man's lifestyle. how would you feel is a fundamentalist (of any type) was the one who got to choose?
"yay! we fixed it so no more homosexuals!" I'm not sure i see the value outweighing the dangers in any of it.

As a medical professional and/or member of a greater society, I have more room to justify the ethicality of these screenings. I'd go so far as to say that we ARE ethically bound to offer these screenings. Welcome to the muddled mess that is my mind. I didn't screen or test during my pregnancies, and won't with future pregnancies. But I know that I can handle what comes my way, and I acknowledge that not everyone is like me. We all have to trust our guts and do what feels right *to us* damning what anyone else things or judges to be right *for us*. FWIW in regards to a later post, I don't partake in traditional immunizations either and I tried to generate a separate thread to expound on that but apparently I'm too new to create a thread of my own LOL. -V-

vivant introduces an interesting ethical question with the immunization issue.
vivant, I'm interested to hear your perspective on the argument that as more parents choose not to immunise against, measles, mumps and rubella, reduce the overall levels of immunity and increase levels of the disease for the population as a whole? |
