Facebook sees unborn children as family members
By Mike Miller · Aug 01, 2011
Granted, it’s not a full-fledged pro-life endorsement, but it’s still a step by a corporation that proves that our society can’t avoid admitting that unborn children are persons.
Facebook now allows its users to add their unborn children to their profiles’ “Friends and Family” section, according to Mashable.
Once added, the unborn child is listed alongside family members on the user’s profile, and a notification is posted on the user’s Facebook wall.
Let’s face it: Common sense tells us that those children in utero are persons. Laws reflect it in cases of assault, manslaughter, etc. As much as society and government may want to deny personhood status to fetuses by allowing abortion, our instinct is to see them as human beings. We just can’t get away from it, and the new Facebook option proves it.
