Fetal test IDs Down syndrome at 11 weeks

I wish that I felt 100% that this is a good thing. Unfortunately, that is not the case.
As more and more "healthcare" providers decide to play God, they wind up abusing their knowledge by killing off the unborn before they even have a chance of life- before even allowing God to take charge. :(

Sure, I would love to know of any complication with my baby as early as I can in my pregnancy. I am not one opposed to the ultrasounds, etc. I loved finding out at 20 weeks that we were having a boy, etc. I don't think it can "ruin the surprise". If this has a good purpose, then fine. But I fear it doesn't, and this makes me so upset and I fear that these tests are going to achieve more harm than good. It shows that in the article:
Quote:

Screening women before the second trimester allows those who might opt to
terminate a pregnancy to make that decision when an abortion is safer and less
traumatic.
LESS TRAUMATIC?! Yea, tell mothers that it won't be traumatic to kill their babies just because they are not perfect! Why not? It just breaks my heart.

For a GOOD, God-loving purpose, then I welcome this "test".

But I can't feel comfortable with it because so many women will have it so they can reject their "imperfect" child. Can you imagine if adults were killed if they had an imperfection? Um, none of us would be here. AGh!
It just upsets me so much. What ever happened to the medical field having a good, life-saving mission?!
Please. Stop sugar-coating this for parents. Stop making it sound as though killing your baby- especially because something is different about them- is justifiable and OK. I
t is even worse to make it sound like it will be no big deal. YES- KILLING YOUR CHILD WILL BE TRAUMATIC! It it not the way the cycle of life is meant to be!

I truly believe
this article would have been just as good- no, better- without the mention of abortion. It was highly unnecessary. Screening for that purpose would also be an abuse of the medical technology available, and it goes against what USED to be the medical field's mission- to help LIFE, not death.
