You know, brain dead is one thing, but if the infant will be conscious and not in pain, I have to say it would be murder. If the infant will not be conscious, or will be in pain for all his life, I would leave that decision to the mother and doctor, and I am not ready to pass judgement on a decision I know I could never make. But if the infant has a viable chance at life and you take it away . . . it is no different than murder, whatever the good intentions.
This issue is very hard for me to consider. I know that it is the only thing that could alienate me from my family, if a woman I know and love had an abortion, I would have to cut her out of my life, for me it would be like if a loved one became a murderer, it would hurt to much to see them.
