Responding to areal ethical dilemma of one his Twitter users, who said she wouldn’t know what to do if she were pregnant with a kid with Down syndrome, Dawkins offered his controversial view. Abort it and try again, he tweeted. It would be immoral to bring it into the world if you have the choice. And now Richard Dawkins tries to back off that comment... kind of.
