Alright, it’s the year 2099, we can predict future of basically a sperm if we wish, and we do. We examine every pregnancy with the WtFtB scanner (What’s the Future to Bring) scanner.
A woman gets pregnant and it’s discovered that the son she’s about to have is like a new Hitler, who will go on and cause great war, murder loads of innocents and basically be a Satan on earth, but there’s always that +/- 0.00005% accuracy in the scanner.

What is OK to do?

If the decision lies in the hands of the parents of the future Hitler-ish being, then there is no difference between what happens now and what happens in your 2099 scenario. If, however, the decision is made by outside forces (government intervention, for example), then we're in big, big trouble. People wonder where the line should be drawn even now...can you imagine what a Pandora's box would be opened if others could force a woman to abort because of what they fear that child will become? How, then, could any line be drawn?

Ponder they'd allow her to give birth, but they had to spend the rest of their lives in house arrest?

Since we are pretending......why don't we pretend a better picture that promote something good instead of murder of children.

"My people do perish for lack of vision."...they are to busy scifing to make things the way they want instead of seeking that which is correct.

If the mother knew this would be the outcome, I can hardly imagine that she would opt to have the baby. Interesting topic, though. Anti-abortionists generally base their views on religion (generally, I repeat). Would someone's religious stance be so firmly against abortion that they would be ok with bringing a child into a life of permanent incarceration? Giving life resulting in the child having virtually NO life?
Hmmmmmmmmmm.

People are not who they are by their genes. It is the life they lead and the ways they think about it. If this child was going to be a cow killer........if he never knew or saw a cow....he could not learn to hate it and kill it. if this Satan child was to be so bad........change the way it live to learn different things, making its thinking different. Most really bad people came from disfuctional lives and many great people have also. Change their experiences and change thier thinking about events that they live. You can always kill them for thier crimes.

Events had as much to do with hitlers rise as he did. if the events were wrong...he couldn't make a decent living being a paper hanger.....opps!....he failed at that didn't he? Yup!

Interesting thread.


I had my children in my late thiries and at fourty.

It was recommended that I have embriotic (spell check) fluid tests done to determine any abnormalities to decide if i wanted to keep or abort.

I declined because I did not want to have to make that choice.

As it turns out the middle and last child has a genetically programmed hereditary disease which is going to make life increasingly difficult for them.

Even the Elephant man had the right to life. Look at who he was and the things he did after being given a chance. Look at the great pleasures he had and gave even among the hardship. He loved life!!!

Hmmm? some interesting thoughts..

there are plenty of characters throughout history that with foresight society may have wanted to remove before they did any damage,whether that would be morally right or wrong, is the question

it reminds me of the movie.. hmm? can't think of the name with tom cruise, where society punishes people before they commit a crime as predicted by a psychic
Kill the little fucker.

Ok... Here is the Science Fiction version...

It's 100 years from now... Women start to manufactor sperm coded with only female DNA... Women kill off all the men in the most horrible ways imaginable prolonging their death as long as possible... Women marry each other and produce girls only using strapons filled with the manufactored sperm... Abortion no longer needed... Centuries later God returns and calls for Adam... Eve tells God Adam was killed off centuries ago... God asks Eve, "What hast thou done!!!" Eve replies, "Fixing up your mess..."
