Since you state it so categorically, I have a serious question. I'd appreciate a serious answer. What is the difference between America today and Germany in WWII days, as citizens watched Jews being rounded up and sent to concentration camps to be legally tortured and killed? Thanks in advance for a serious answer.Well, for one, this is not an issue of persecution based on a race or religion. For another, if she'd had a living will stating otherwise this wouldn't be happening (I'm sure no Jew in Europe could have signed a document saying "I don't want to go to a camp" that would have prevented their slaughter). For another, she wasn't "rounded up." For another, these decisions are all based on testimony (whether true or not) that she did not wish to live in this condition. (I'm pretty sure no one claimed the Jews in WWII told them they wanted to die in a concentration camp).
Like I said, this is wrong and horrifying and sad, but hyperbole hardly furthers the cause.
I think you just coined the new motto of the RNC! For poor Terri, she is tortured not for failure to leave a so-called "living will" that can be manipulated by "health care" officials for their purposes but for being "unequally yoked with a nonbeliever."
The Communists slaughtered over 10 times as many people as the Nazis did, but not on the basis of race. If you were, say, a Ukranian killed by the Communists for being a landowning farmer, you were just as dead as a Jew killed by the Nazis for being of "inferior blood." Our own pro-diversity, anti-racist liberals and humanists may do the same to those who are too old, too disabled, even too fat. Furthermore, from what we have seen of the pro-life and conservative communities in the Schiavo affairs, they may not face meaningful, effective opposition.
God save the United States of America.
