Designer Baby

I don't agree with the designer baby. If I was sick, I wouldn't want my parents to have had my brother just to provide for me. I would be grateful for everything he was doing for me, but I would also be completely dependent on him. Also, if it were my child that was sick, I wouldn't create another baby just to help the first child. I would love the first child, but things in life happen for a reason. There is a reason that the child is sick, and I wouldn't want to mess with that. What happens if the second child stops providing for the first? We are all going to die eventually, and we need to learn to deal with pain and loss. Things will get better, but we can't make life perfect. This isn't how life is supposed to happen.

Holocaust Denial

How can you reason with the fact that millions of people, millions of Jews, died in a short period of time? It's all because of the Holocaust. There is no reason to deny history. It's all true, it all happened. There is evidence everywhere about the Holocaust. It was a horrific event, but it shouldn't be overlooked or denied. World War 2 helped shape the world into what it is today. We need to look at events past to keep them from happening today. Look for credible sources for information. The Internet is constantly available, but we need to be carefully. Web sites that aren't reliable are going to be biased, and that means they will twist the story until you believe something different. Looking around the world, there are remains of crematories, gas chambers, and concentration camps.
