This article certainly raises some troubling issues, though I have yet to understand why one should equate ceasing to artificially sustain life with euthanasia or assisted suicide. What I wonder, however, is if the same people who are so concerned about erroneously identifying someone as in a vegetative state are similarly concerned about the possibility of [...]

Fresh off a Plenary briefing on their efforts to combat same-sex marriage -- and as financial disclosures highlighted the assistance of over 40 dioceses in funding the movement behind this month's citizens' veto of Maine's law permitting the unions -- 15 leading US bishops joined in signing an ecumenical "call to conscience" last week that not only decried the "impulse to redefine marriage,"...

For 23 years doctors said that Rom Houben was in a vegetative state and not aware of his surroundings. This all changed when he was re-evaluated and clinicians realized he was paralyzed but completely aware of his surroundings and able to hear every word that was spoken to him. He is quoted by the Mail Online : 'I shall never forget the day when they discovered what was truly wrong with me - it was...

You can follow the link above to the full article, but here are some choice quotes from Dr. Kilburn: “We’re not going to drill into the magma chamber or erupt the volcano. We’re going...

According to a recent declaration on Christian principles, if a person were to stand up in a crowded room, shout "Allah Akbar", and start shooting everybody present, it would be a violation of his religious liberty to duck and cover and head for the door, or to shoot the person who is doing the shooting. A group of Christians have released a proclamation that they have titled the "Manhattan...

According to this article hundreds of horses are likely to be shot this winter as owners find they can no longer afford to keep them. Animal charities and sanctuaries have already reported a rise in the number of animals needing new homes but as they are already flooded with demand many have been turning away unwanted animals for months. As a result euthanasia is often the only option especially for...

A man thought by doctors to be in a vegetative state for 23 years was actually conscious the whole time, it was revealed last night : Student Rom Houben was misdiagnosed after a car crash left him totally paralysed. He had no way of letting experts, family or friends know he could hear every word they said. 'I screamed, but there was nothing to hear,' said Mr Houben, now 46. Doctors used a range of...

I wrote this as a comment at TitusOneNine : It’s a slippery slope. All the things that may end up left out of the bills now (abortion, euthanasia, etc.) may be slipped in later once control is handed over. What I am fearful of is that the bishops are either letting their own personal or ‘institutional’ (USCCB) opinions intrude or else simply being short-sighted by approving of a concept...

By Alex Schadenberg - 14 reasons why C-384 is dangerous to society and must be defeated: Bill C-384 would legalize euthanasia and assisted suicide in Canada. Bill C-384 does not restrict intended death to Canadian citizens, thus if passed it would make Canada a destination for suicide tourists. The person may refuse appropriate treatments and still die by an intended death. A medical practitioner cannot...

To mark this weekend's collection for the Catholic Campaign for Human Development, the print edition of the Cincinnati Enquirer runs a response to my letter from the heads of the Social Action office for the Archdiocese of Cincinnati and the Contact Center. They call my "insinuation" about the center "ludicrous and offensive," but never really address the concerns that a growing...

The Senators have been busy "debating" the so-called Reid behemoth Rationed Medical Care Bill or Health Insurance Reform Bill as some euphemistically characterize the 2074 page bill.
