Question:
What is the Church’s stance on eugenics?
Answer:
The Church is opposed to eugenics, because eugenics values human beings not for who they are—children made in the image and likeness of God regardless of their abilities (see Genesis 1:26-27)—but rather for their perceived social worth. For more, see this article.
