Exceptions: Aspie Eugenics Recently, articles have been posted in Society regarding abortion of fetuses suspected of having genes that would result in an autistic child. Therefore, discussing what political parties' views concerning methods they intend to support and promote in order to ameliorate the genetic composition of the human race -- ie. an agenda to foster such betterment through the casual use of abortion -- is most definitely allowed as a topic and does not contravene the rules set out on the Home Page. After all, henderhouse, I'm quite certain that none of us wishes a pseudo-scientific retreat to be created for bigots and racists by virtue of supporting the abortion of fetuses that may develop autism at some point -- either during the gestational period or after birth -- which would put all of us in danger as even more radical and potentially fatal initiatives could be brough in as law. Although I am not an Admin in this forum, I can see that this discussion has value here and is not in contravention of the rules as set out on the Home Page.
