New Institute will study disability and bioethics issues

"Regent University, the Christian college in Virginia, has launched a new institute that will study how abortion and euthanasia are targeting the disabled community. The new organization will examine how the practices have created a multitude of human rights abuses ranging from sex-selection abortions to discrimination.

Mark P. Mostert, who will oversee the new center, calls the targeting of the disabled a global “silent war."
