Euthanasia under any other name is still murder!

The Catechism of the Catholic Church

Euthanasia

2276 Those whose lives are diminished or weakened deserve special respect. Sick or handicapped persons should be helped to lead lives as normal as possible.

2277 Whatever its motives and means, direct euthanasia consists in putting an end to the lives of handicapped, sick, or dying persons. It is morally unacceptable.

Thus an act or omission which, of itself or by intention, causes death in order to eliminate suffering constitutes a murder gravely contrary to the dignity of the human person and to the respect due to the living God, his Creator. The error of judgment into which one can fall in good faith does not change the nature of this murderous act, which must always be forbidden and excluded.

2278 Discontinuing medical procedures that are burdensome, dangerous, extraordinary, or disproportionate to the expected outcome can be legitimate; it is the refusal of "over-zealous" treatment. Here one does not will to cause death; one's inability to impede it is merely accepted. The decisions should be made by the patient if he is competent and able or, if not, by those legally entitled to act for the patient, whose reasonable will and legitimate interests must always be respected.

2279 Even if death is thought imminent, the ordinary care owed to a sick person cannot be legitimately interrupted. The use of painkillers to alleviate the sufferings of the dying, even at the risk of shortening their days, can be morally in conformity with human dignity if death is not willed as either an end or a means, but only foreseen and tolerated as inevitable Palliative care is a special form of disinterested charity. As such it should be encouraged.

"Organs harvested from live bodies are worth far more than organs taken from dead bodies. Many Falun Gong practitioners were still alive when their organs were taken. After their organs were cut out, some of these people were thrown directly into the crematorium to be burnt, thus leaving no evidence. "

SICK!

The Epoch Times isn't exactly the epitome of a reliable source.

The forms of warfare are changing. It's strange that not a single duck has died in America - they are all dying in Russia and European countries," Gennady Zyuganov said at a press conference in Moscow.
"This makes one seriously wonder why."


Uhhh...could it be that big thing in the middle we call an ocean???? Nahhhh...that's too obvious....

Well lets hope they have this ALL WRONG.

There's simply no way for him to cool the power-direction circuitry of his weather-machine without access to ice and LOTS of it. Fortunately, he's well enough equipped to bring his own extension cords. And he's got to see the results of his weather-manipulations on Fox so he can know when enough's enough. I read about all this stuff in the Weekly World News, and it seems pretty straightforward to me.

Nice! I've also heard them called Demquiris.

"... and suggests that a 'gift' might be left in the room."


What a stupid thing to say - the memo only says: "If the Hotel would like to put a gift in the Suite please let Advance Officer know ASAP."

This is not a request for a gift - it's a statement made for security purposes. NORMALLY, most hotels will leave a "gift" for ANY IMPORTANT PERSON who visits their hotel. The note is only to inform the hotel that if they plan to do that for the VP - they will have to give advance notice so the item can be inspected before it is left in the VP's room.

But .. leave it to the media to assume the VP's office is suggesting the hotel provide a gift when they do no such thing.
