Ashton Kutcher praised for posting pro-life message

Ashton Kutcher praised for posting pro-life message Actor Ashton Kutcher

US superstar Ashton Kutcher has been praised by pro-life groups after posting a Down syndrome advocate’s powerful testimony in front of Congress.

The actor shared the video of Special Olympian Frank Stephen’s pro-life message with the message: “Everyone’s life is valuable.”

Kutcher’s post comes amid a reignited debate partly led by New York’s recent passing of a law that hugely loosens abortion regulation.

The actor appeared to row back in a new post, after receiving huge support from pro-life advocates, saying he doesn’t see abortion as “a black and white issue”.

However he added: “We are genetically diverse as a species by design, for generational survival, and should think very carefully about how we regulate these sciences.”

“This idea of non-dominant outcomes being inferior and non-desirable traits being negative, and then selected – is a very slippery slope that looks a lot like embryonic eugenics and that scares me.”
