See, now what strikes me is...
This woman, a woman who wishes to be a parent, and I would assume a responsible parent, has spoken in public (presumably to gain sympathy) and said; "Some people say I'm going to give birth to a freak but I don't care as it's a gift from God. (blah blah blah).
Now. I understand that this couple have been trying for a child for some time with varying degrees of success. Doctors have predicted a 20% survival rate for the child and already state that it has a weak heartbeat.
Sounds to me like this fuckwit of a woman is having a child purely for her own gratification and hasn't given any thought to the child's quality of life. If it dies after child birth, this wil be more traumatising for all involved (including the child). If in the unlikely circumstances it survives, the likelyhood of it needing corrective surgery is high. The chance of it surviving said surgery is low. It will die and therefore the suffering wil be EVEN greater for all involved (including the child). If, after all this, it survives - what is it's quality of life likely to be?
Outcome in all situations, child has little to no quality of life (or is alive at all). Parents have Money from selling story to The Scum.
No, it's not a gift from God my love, - it's Gods way of telling you that your genes aren't good enough to contribute to society, so keep it in your pants and let the rest of us look after the procreation.

I'm trying to bite my tongue (well, not type) but they are too FUCKING UGLY to have children.
Even very ugly single headed monobrowed children would be bad enough, not dual-headed goat of mendes freakchildren.
KILL IT! KILL IT WITH FIRE!

This is the rant I would've written
If I'd got here sooner, and was more eloquent and articulate.

I salute you
Why give birth to a child whose entire life experience will be nothing but pain and suffering, if it survives at all?
And if it does survive to grow up, what about the immense emotional trauma of finding out that you were once the kid with two heads?
What the fuck is wrong with these people?
Oh yeah, that's right. Religion.
