Difficult question. And I don't see why it has to be religious. Would it really be better to kill the baby rather than let it die naturally? Are the parents gaining in that scenario? Why should it be lawful to kill an unborn child? I can see there might be reason if any suffering of the child could be known, but it wasn't. The mother would have had to give birth to the baby dead. Isn't there something to holding it and loving it even ever so briefly?
Either way the child was going to die. One way could have had it die as quickly and as painlessly as possible. The other involved it being born, then having to struggle to breath and cling onto life for the brief moments it had, what kind of life is that? That's without even taking into account the suffering the parents had to endure by watching it die in their hands, an image they now have to live with for the rest of their lives.
How can letting it be born and live such a short life of complete agony be better than the alternative?
How come when dealing with abortion and euthanasia we give more dignity and fairer treatment to our pets and animals than we do to our fellow human beings?
