I will add another- the nurse who helped my mother deliver me (yes, she IS still alive!) had a child of her own a few years later. He had Down's syndrome, and she didn't even look at him for three days after he was born. Eventually, he became the favored of her six children! When he died at age 17, she was heart broken! The parish priest 'consoled' her saying,"well, he is better off and so are you". She left the Church that day.<br />When we look down on the precious gifts of God, when we avoid them with contraceptives, when we test them with amniocentesis, when we abort them,when we turn away and ignore them, we cast ourselves off from God, their Creator. As you suggest, these are God's little postage <br />stamps,unique,one of a kind, sent with love to earth. Why can't we all see this?? Probably because we are so darn perfect ourselves!!tradcatholichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10622408585220847550noreply@blogger.com
