it's ok to be luddite ...

[Lorentzen / Nicklaus]

 ... such a cosy rainy morning, but then my eye fell on the paper & i read - in 
 my mother's language - the following on the frontpage: "the decoding of the 
 human genome means, according to the nobel prize winner james watson, a deep 
 cut in the history of mankind. watson pleads for the right to end the life of 
 genetically handicaped fetuss before the time, in case the genetical knowledge 
 is available. christian belief shouldn't hinder the right to have healthy 
 children" ... & in the (faz-)feuilleton you can read the whole neo-eugenical 
 pamphlet of mr. james d(ummy)watson ... some "humans also believe that 
 genetically handicaped fetuss have the same existential rights like those who 
 are given a healthy and productive life [i indeed do - kfl]. such arguments, 
 however, are not strong for all of us who are not convinced by the religious 
 thesis of the sacrosanctness of life and, in the place of this, believe that 
 human and other life was not created by god but by an evolutionary process 
 which follows the darwinian priciples of natural selection [- "don't know 
 much about history ..."] ... the abortion of a genetically handicaped fetus  
 wouldn't hinder the life of those, into whose world the child otherwise would  
 have been born into. in such a case the relief [- such a fucking asshole ...] 
 that nobody was forced to love and support a child, whose life never would have 
 given occasion to hope for successs, should be the focal question" ... 

                      many of thousand times: noooooooooo !!! 

 let's stop bio-technology now! kfl (- looking for a ranch in montana ...)

ps: you're not so naive to think that  t h e y  will stop there, are you?! ... & 
we will be nothing else but food for the moon ...
