If you had an absolutely fool proof method of determining that a fetus will turn out to be gay, wouldn't you be morally obligated to abort it?

Define what you mean by gay, but the short and quick answer is no, infanticide is immoral.

Infanticide and abortion are two entirely different things, unless you have a closed mind.

And gay people have the same right to "life,liberty and the pursuit of happiness" as everybody else:
no more
no less

This is a serious issue. I'm saddened and dismayed that y'all can't address the issues.

It's up to the mother to decide if a gay child would be too hard for her to raise.

No, Its not serious, because your delving into the hypothetical. There is no 'foolproof' method of determining and probably never be in our life times.

Something tells me your on a 'fishing expedition' of some sort. 😀

Yes, if somehow I knew that my child would be born gay, I would abort it.

Yes, and hire a hit man if he turns out to be gay later in life.

Well, I'm all for aborting as many pre-children as possible, but I don't think "being gay" would make me do so any more than "not being gay".

I would, however, scrape it out with a knitting needle myself if I ever had 100% proof it was gonna be a republican. Or religious. Or a conservative.
