Bill Reichart

This document discusses the history of how personhood has been defined and applied inconsistently over time, often to deny rights to vulnerable groups. It notes that personhood was denied to blacks under slavery, women were not initially considered persons under law, and Native Americans and Jews also faced being stripped of personhood status. The document argues that government cannot be trusted with defining personhood and suggests personhood should be recognized as an inalienable right inherent in all human beings from the beginning of biological development. It links current issues like abortion, euthanasia and human experimentation to past failures to recognize the personhood of oppressed groups.

In November 1935 Nazi Germany declared that Jews were subjects of the Reich but not citizens under the newly enacted Nuremberg Laws on Citizenship and Race. Article 4 (1) stated, A Jew cannot be a citizen of the Reich. He cannot exercise the right to vote; he cannot hold public office.
After the Nuremberg Laws of 1935, a number of additional Nazi decrees were issued that eventually outlawed the Jews completely, depriving them of their rights as human beings.

EUGENICS: A social philosophy, which advocates the improvement of human hereditary traits through various forms of intervention by the State. The State would purify the world of those traits or people that are considered undesirable.
Eugenic Advocates Margaret Sanger KKK Adolph Hitler
Genetic Engineering/Designer Babies: A laboratory technique used by scientists to change the DNA of living organisms. It is used to perfect what they feel are unwanted characteristics of a person, such as stupidity, autism, or diabetes, and enable every parent to have the perfect child of their choosing like hair, eyes, intelligence, and abilities: a world of Barbie's and Kens.
Cloning: Is taking the nucleus and replacing it with the genetic makeup of a person to create its clone for the future purposes of reproduction for infertile or homosexual couples, harvesting body parts, and research. Somatic Cell Nuclear Transfer
Genoism: It is creating a perfect race through gene selection. It will be producing what is classified as wanted children with their criteria and destroying the undesired. At the Emory Reproductive Center, the mechanical process of embryo cryopreservation is laboratory controlled to reduce the risk of technical failure. Only high quality embryos are selected for cryopreservation since poor quality embryos seldom survive the freezing and thawing processes.
