I can't stand you. You're feeding people your bullshit about Ethics when you really don't seem to understand it. If you did, you wouldn't be calling for the murder of disabled babies and saying they should be denied health coverage. There is a special place in hell for you.

Reading Prof. Singer's work has done a lot to help me crystallize my obligations to the less fortunate and help make the world a better place.
Prof. Singer has done a lot to encourage people to alleviate extreme poverty and ameliorate factory farming. To the best of my knowledge, very few if any people have been persuaded by his arguments to murder babies.
Erin, I suspect that you have not actually read much of Prof.Singer's work, and if you did, have not given them the due consideration they thoroughly deserve. At best, you're being (deliberately?) uncharitable. At worst, you're engaging in ad hominems and ignoring the consequences of your actions resulting in very real suffering all over the world in favor of identity politics.
