Source: boilingfrogspost.com As more and more increasingly outrageous headlines begin to gain notoriety among the general public--Newsweek making the case for killing granny, for example, or the recent widespread coverage of an article in the Journal of Medical Ethics promoting infanticide--many are only beginning to realize what the authors of the "after-birth abortion" paper admitted in such a blase fashion in the open letter they used to defend their proposal: these debates have been going on in the bioethics community for 40 years. They are only now arriving as a type of fait accompli to be digested by the public.
