Infant Euthanasia in the Netherlands

Evangelical Outpost has an interesting take on the deafening silence that has met the announcement that hospitals in the Netherlands have officially embraced infant euthanasia:

I must admit that the most surprising aspect of this story is that people find the practice of euthanasia surprising. For the past thirty years almost all Western nations have embraced some form of abortion and in doing so have accepted the premise that human life in not intrinsically valuable. The shift from abortion to active euthanasia of infants does not require tumbling down the slippery slope; it merely requires people to act consistently with their views.
