Doing the fetus fetishists' back-pedal

It's not a new dance craze. It's what the zygote zealots do when they attempt to gloss over their MASSIVE tactical error, by blindly supporting octuplet mom Nadya Suleman.

Quick to pass judgment is Karoline Byler, a Roman Catholic who received hormone shots to stimulate ovulation. The Vatican has taken an official position against abortion and in-vitro fertilization but Byler was able to get pregnant yet obey the doctrine of her Church because she carried all six fetus to term. It wasn’t easy, though the Bylers’ pediatrician authorized nursing assistance since one of the babies still required oxygen three months after their birth by C-section.

Nadya Suleman recently turned down support from the Christian group Angels in Waiting which had offered to raise money to provide her and the babies with a house and 24-hour care. Sniffed Karoline Byler: “To be frank, I think that she’s an attention whore.”


Could that be the sound of sour grapes talking? The Bylers once had an exclusive contract with Inside Edition. Wonder how that’s going for them, now that sextuplets have become ho-hum.

And yet again, the fundie fixation on children as commodities.
