Infanticide: The inevitable outcome of radical utilitarianism

Democrats are diving for cover after the recent radical bills in New York and Virginia legalizing third-term abortions under the guise of a single physician’s call that a pregnancy is harmful to the woman’s “health.” But what’s really happening is that the Left is abandoning its prior defenses of abortion and instead clinging to its fatal utilitarianism.

Abandoned are assertions that a “clump of cells” does not constitute a human life, that a fetus is nonsentient, and that it doesn’t have the same moral value as a fully developed human. Instead, the new Democratic Party has embraced the suffering of the few as a positive good so long as it benefits the many.
