questões filosóficas [que vão dar 'pano para mangas']... e as purgas [fundamentalistas] censórias... que logo eclodiram...!
"The pair – Alberto Giubilini from the University of Milan and Monash
University in Melbourne and Francesca Minerva from the University of
Melbourne and Oxford University, argued in the journal that, as
"potential persons", newborn babies, like foetuses, do not have the same
moral status as "actual persons".
What they preferred to call
"after-birth abortion" rather than infanticide should be allowed not
only for babies with abnormalities, such as Down's syndrome, which had
not been detected during the pregnancy, but also newborns whose parents
would have been granted an abortion because they felt they could not
psychologically or materially cope with a child.
The newborn baby
is a non-person, argue the ethicists, because they have no sense of
their own existence. At a few days old, they say, newborns are
"potential persons" but not actual persons, in the same way that a
foetus is a potential person. So the interests of their parents
over-ride theirs."
