Misrepresenting the Church (Mary Meets Dolly)

nospam@example.com (Rebecca Taylor) — Wed, 27 Aug 2008 19:20:47 GMT

I really hate it when Catholics deny the teachings of their own church and then say that they are still staunchly Catholic. So you don't agree with Church teaching on abortion, embryonic stem cell research, euthanasia etc? Fine. Just say you disagree. Don't say that you support abortion on demand and then pretend that you follow Church teaching to the letter. It irks me because it makes non-Catholics...

We all have different ideas of how to round off a nice bank-holiday weekend, but listening to a monologue from a terminally ill woman, rehearsing her final words to her husband while waiting for euthanasia in a clinic in Zurich, is probably not up there in the top 10, even if she is played by the splendid, ever-reliable Sheila Hancock. At the same time, mind you, ITV1 was showing Pierrepoint, about...

Brand Euthanasia (THINKing)

Mon, 25 Aug 2008 13:08:16 GMT

Was just reading an interesting piece at MediaPost about Kellogg trying to resuscitate a brand - Hydrox - that long had been on life support. Hydrox - developed by Sunshine Bakeries - was the original creme filled cookie. Oreo is the knock-off. But like IBM, whose mantra used to be “second with power”, Oreo out-marketed [...]

The Hard, Cold, Awful Reality of Euthanasia/Assisted Suicide (Secondhand Smoke)

Sat, 23 Aug 2008 15:59:00 GMT

A story just published in the UK's Guardian is a diary account of the euthanasia death of Mieneke Weide-Boelkes, a woman with brain cancer, written by her son Marc Weide, who made it public. As such, and because it is so awful, it seemed to me that frank comment was warranted. I sent it off to First Things , and they put it up on the site . But I want to reproduce my comments here, too. The story of...

Doctors must always have right to follow conscience (ProudToBeCanadian Blog)

Fri, 22 Aug 2008 23:54:51 GMT

Some 2,500 years ago, doctors were both healers and killers. Abortion and euthanasia were commonplace, and the type of medical service rendered depended on who was paying the bill or how the ‘payee’ asked the ‘doctor’ to take care of the patient. That ended in 400 BC, when a Greek physician named Hippocrates decided that patients deserved better and wrote an oath to affirm the sanctity of life and...

Euthanasia (The Secular Outpost)

Thu, 21 Aug 2008 19:00:00 GMT

My grandmother recently died. That was sad for those of us who loved her, but no great surprise. She was 88, in failing health, and she had had a good life. But the process of her dying was perhaps unnecessarily difficult. She had a massive stroke which destroyed her left brain hemisphere. Her wishes for a situation like this were very clear, both in terms of explicit paperwork and statements to family...
