The culture of death...hits the nail on the head.
The Groningen Protocol is the proposal of doctors in the Netherlands for the establishment of an “independent committee” charged with selecting babies and other severely handicapped or disabled people for euthanasia.
As reported in the Grand Forks Herald: “Under the Groningen protocol, if doctors at the hospital think a child is suffering unbearably from a terminal condition, they have the authority to end the child's life. The protocol is likely to be used primarily for newborns, but it covers any child up to age 12.”
The report further noted the parents’ wishes on whether a child should live or die would be considered, but the final decision would be left to the “committee.”
The Drudge Report broadcast the news to the cyber world this November: “The protocol was already in effect, and at least four babies had been deemed disposable, and killed.”
Columnist Hugh Hewitt called it “a radical leap past Kevorkian land into the regions of Mengele.
“Four years into the new century, and one can only guess where it will end. I do not think it is safe to bet that these next 96 years will be less bloody than the years 1905 to 1999,” he concluded.
Why not? It's just the logical outcome when life is trivialized, and though horrifying, I'm not really shocked.
Who are we to judge them. We, as a nation, have killed a full third of Gen X before they were born. Don't act like we are on some moral high ground.
Wichita Kansas is known as the Abortion Captial of the U.S. with our (in)famous Dr. Tiller. We can't even begin to cast that stone.
