Well said.........these issues are much more agonizingly complex,especially at the personal level, than some of the simpler minds here would have us believe.
How? How is basic right and wrong any different now than it was thousands of years ago?
Well said.........these issues are much more agonizingly complex,especially at the personal level, than some of the simpler minds here would have us believe.
Before I state my position, let me make an observation and ask you just one question.
Observation: Did you notice that goat granny is doing the exact same thing she accuses me and others of doing? Think about it.
Question: Why is it that you folks think you are the only ones who've ever had to deal with tragedy?
Now, let me state my position:
I am not willing to screw up the finest medical system in the history of the world so that you guys can have your way.
I am not willing to screw up the legal system that guards my rights and the rights of everyone I love so that you guys can have your way.
I am certainly not willing to do these things to "solve" problems that only arise in an infinitesimal number of medical cases.
That goes double when many of those problems result from bad case management or family meddling.
That goes triple when we can see that other countries and even a U.S. state have gone down this road and found that it leads to coercion of the sick and vulnerable.
If you want to call that simple-minded, go ahead. It's where I'm standing, and the simple facts--and simple compassion--are on my side.
***These so called moral absolute posts have some of the sickest, judgmental name calling people I have encountered on Free Republic....That is why I call them pseudo Christians, because I have know real Christians that would never say the things some of these people do...

Right and wrong, life and death, heaven and hell are more agonizingly complex than the simple would have us believe? Perhaps you could share with us what perversion that you enjoy that you would wrap up in this opaque blanket along with all the others.
