For those of you critical of Ms Reist for bringing in the abortion issue and criticising the Catholic Church, can't you see that, despite all its faults, the Church has an universalist position that says you can't pick and choose categories of life that are expendable or times when these things are too inconvenient to deal with.

As for the specific 'cynical' example of the Dr and his Down's boy, can't you see he should have aborted his own son!? Bloody selfish of him not too, afterall, the German doctors led this field back in the 1930's.

If the largest and oldest organisation in the care game can't be cut some slack on this one, well, no surprises here really..
