Which one?

The Mother walked into the Doctor's office, carrying
a bright and beautiful baby.  Seating herself near the
family physician, she said, "Doctor, I want you to help
me with my problem.  My baby is one year old and I've
conceived again.  I don't want to have two children so
close together."

"Ah," said the Doctor, "and what would you have me do?"
"I want you to get rid of it for me," answered the woman.
After thinking seriously for a moment, the Doctor said:
"I think I can suggest a way of helping you out. If you 
object to two children being so close in age, the best way 
would be to kill the one on your lap and let the other one be born."
"It's easy to get at the one on your lap and it makes no 
difference to me which one I kill.  Besides, killing the unborn
baby may endanger your life." With that the Doctor reached for a knife and casually asked the Mother to lay the baby down on her lap and turn her
head away.

The woman leaped up from her chair and screamed, "Murderer."
A few words from the Doctor soon convinced the woman
that his offer to commit murder was no worse than her request
to him to destroy her unborn child.
In either case, the act would be murder; the only difference
would be the age of the victim.
(From The Evangelist)
