Death with Dignity

The Seattle Post noted that Washington state is moving toward a Death With Dignity bill similar to the one passed in Oregon in 1994. Essentially the bill allows to act as Dr. Kevorkian, who spent time in prison for assisting terminally ill patients to die. As you read the article you are moved by the pain and desire to die that people have. All this bill would do is make it legal for the doctor to help them commit suicide.

Undoubtedly this will be a law in all 50 states based on false images of helping people.

First, you need to realize that the population over 80 is growing rapidly. Many of these people are in nursing homes that cost either the person or the government $3000.00 a month. The average person in a nursing home could be viewed as only a burden and the concept of the sanctity of life gently floats out the window on the wings of a dove. Why not just put them to sleep permanently and save all that money?

Like Amos of old, I am not a prophet nor the son of a prophet. But I will assure you that once the Death with Dignity laws are passed it is only a matter of time when euthanasia will be conducted at the whim of the medical profession or the government to eliminate "unwanteds." I would encourage you to recall or read about the early efforts of Adolf Hitler to purify Germany. With abortion wiping out life before it is born by the millions and abortionists being protected by state and federal officials even when they are covering up the crime of incest, and now this bill, Death With Dignity, we are driving another nail in the coffin of our great nation.

One of the greatest theologians of the 20th century, Francis Schaeffer, predicted all this. Thankfully he is not around to see the fulfillment of his predictions.
