Death mongers frequently assume that anyone who values life has no life experience. They have such a negative view of life, they can't imagine anyone actually valuing it. I've noticed that most of the regulars who advocate for life on the pro-life threads have a rich history of life experience. There are many cancer survivors, disabled people, care givers, etc. On the death side, there are many people who talk about theories, but rarely have they actually experienced anything relevant. Once they actually face a life and death situation, they switch sides real quick. Like their hero Dr. Death, they never apply their own medicine to themselves, except in hypothetical situations and theories. Other people should be killed, but never them.
I agree with you. I was going to write some of the experiences I’ve had, and then thought better, even jotting down this and that wouldn’t convince anyone.
Pro-death people are very “ME ME ME” centered. Those without compassion for the suffering of others just don’t SEE others. They see only themselves. Their wants.
Another point is that those of us who have come close to death either our own, or others’ (or both) and suffering and illness, and are pro-life, realize that God is in control. Death and life are under His jurisdiction and control, not mine. It’s our job to go along with His plan and His will, not try to wrest control away from Him (which can never really happen anyway, and always creates more suffering). Resting in His will is the only safe place.
