Ultimately, the “right to suicide” movement is about killing OTHER people.

Moral Absolutes Ping!

I just have to ping this. Maybe I'll get it together to do some pinging. The evil death cultists, since they love death so much, should just off themselves and leave the rest of humanity alone.

It always has been. I read a book years ago by (dang it! What is his name?? Throckmorton?) about the suicide/assisted suicide movement. He determined, from peoples’ own words, that the reason they want to kill themselves is so that they can control their “destiny” up to the very last minute. Not referring to those who commit suicide out of despair or serious mental illness, but those planning out their own suicide and those propagating such suicide for others.

In simple language, such people want to be the lords of their own lives, and try to snatch control from God.

He has:

“...Covering services provided to individuals who are irreversibly prevented from being or becoming participating citizens are not basic, and should not be guaranteed. An obvious example is not guaranteeing health services to patients with dementia.”

Yes, very few on our side accept the idea and keep thinking of the left as

“well intentioned by misguided”.

No, they want us dead.


Exactly. Hopefully more and more people realize the truth of the leftist pukes’ real motives and plans.

Obamacare already has provisions for government appointment of end-of-life panels and doctors authorized to sign end-of-life orders.

Will they decide Christians are mentally ill and use this to kill us all?

Who makes the decision who lives or dies?

This is going to happen here soon. And most of us will be branded mentally ill as well...
