"BUT JUST BECAUSE OF WHO HE WAS -- ROBERT WENDLAND, HUMAN BEING. "
Whether it's the defenseless child in the womb, or the disabled person in the nursing home, our society has somehow gotten to the point where their lives don't matter, they have nothing to contribute to our utilitarian, consumer-crazed culture. In this society, people are 'things' to be used and discarded.
Wesley Smith has so beautifully expressed the truth that people ARE NOT OBJECTS.
They are persons, made in the image and likeness of God. And as such, they are PRECIOUS and IRREPLACEABLE. Heaven help us if we continue down this path!

Yeah, the more I read from Wesley the more I like him.
I personally thought that was one of the more beautiful things I have read. I am going to put it on my FR page. It is all about what is important.

Also the idea that the extremely vulnerable offer a mirror to us, in which we reflect who we are.
Cranford must feel sick when he looks into that mirror.
Did anyone visit the link I put up for the testimonies ( audio) from Cranford and the other Neurologist?
