Worse still, the celebrant of the Mass requested by Pelosi was Jesuit Father Robert Drinan, a former member of Congress who had supported abortion rights and publicly defended President Bill Clinton's veto of a bill to ban partial-birth abortion. In his homily, Father Drinan had the audacity to recall "Christ's personal love of children and His affirmation that 'whatsoever you do for the least of My brethren you do for Me.'" When Father Drinan died three weeks later, Trinity posted a tribute to him.
Ethicist Paul Ramsey frequently warned that any argument for abortion could logically be ... used as an argument for infanticide. As if to illustrate this, Dr. Francis Crick, of DNA fame, demonstrated that he was less concerned about the ethics of such logical extensions and proposed a more radical definition of personhood. He suggested in the British journal Nature that if "a child were considered to be legally born when two days old, it could be examined to see whether it was an 'acceptable member of human society.'" Obviously this is not only an argument for abortion; it's an argument for infanticide.

It is suggested that sex-selective abortion might be partially responsible for the noticeable disparities between the birth rates of male and female children in some places. The preference for male children is reported in many areas of Asia, and abortion used to limit female births has been reported in Mainland China, Taiwan, South Korea, and India.[40]
