I'm a little puzzled by all this talk about "dignity." Is this some sort of new human right like water and breathing? What dignity did Christ (the Son of God!) have during his brutal Passion and death on the Cross??

I can understand an atheist believing in this manner but Christians? Being a Christian is about taking up your Cross and following Christ, however painful or undignified it may be.

Suffering in this life is temporary. The afterlife is forever.

I'm not a Christian.

Do you believe that everyone on this site is a Christian?

That only Christians can be conservatives?

Dignity is found in your words. You write some serious prose.

Following Christ? You mean that man who took actions knowing they would result in His death?
