Prehistoric Ancestors Knew More Than We

The Dutch kill their babies, both unborn and disabled. A lapse of ethics and morals I believe. Most supposed civilized countries allow the killing of their unborn children at various stages. Many supposed civilized countries are contemplating legalizing infanticide, thereby removing the  handicapped from society, eugenics. 

Recently discovered, was the remains of an infant born with a skull deformity. It is the oldest known deformed infant remains that has been found from prehistoric times. Upon discovery of these remains, many scientists were surprised because this child would have needed specialized care to live as long as the remains indicated. This surprise comes because many scientist equate human beings with animals. We know that animals are known to reject their newborns with severe deformities. Until these remains were found, scientist had therefore assumed that prehistoric humans, just like animals, had rejected children born with severe deformities.

Society would do well to model after Sarah Palin. Upon finding out that she was pregnant with a Downs Syndrome baby, she asked God for strength to soften her heart and accept the gift He had given her.

A society that doesn't protect the weakest among us, is a society that will never survive.
