For centuries Western culture and Christian in particular have to a view the sanctity of human life. In our society today, this view is beginning to erode into a quality-of-life standard. Where once we saw the disabled, the retarded, and the unborn as having a special place in God’s world, now we have moved into a position of judging only the quality of human life. No longer is life as such seen as sacred and worthy to be saved. Now it is seen as something to be judged and evaluated.
