It's infuriating.

Stephen Hawking lived over 5 decades of his life incapacitated.

Unable to live, or even move, without the aid of humans and machines.

He cursed God every day of his life, yet I didn't know of a single Christian who said he should be starved to death because his "quality of life" was insufficient.

I've confronted the eugenicists with this question, and not a single one has given me a satisfactory answer.

Chesterton saw it coming.

You can’t be “murdered” by a machine. A machine can f*ck you up but it wouldn’t be murder. More like you f*cked up and because you happened to be in the way of a machine that happened to be in operation, you sustained a fatal injury or injuries that lead to your death.

Chesterton was a great inspiration to C. S. Lewis.

As coincidence would have it, I'm a few pages into my first Chesterton book, "The Thing."

It takes a bit of time to get used to his style, but so far so good.

My first highlighted passage: "The fact is this: that the modern world, with its modern movements, is living on its Catholic capital. It is using, and using up, the truths that remain to it out of the old treasury of Christendom."

When your society becomes a killer is it wrong for armed gangs to form in order to handle business and rescue victims. Make it into the old West and after some know-it-all authorities die, things will get polite again.
