I swear by Apollo Physician and Asclepius and Hygieia and Panaceia and all the gods and goddesses, making them my witnesses, that I will fulfil according to my ability and judgment this oath and this covenant:
To hold him who has taught me this art as equal to my parents and to live my life in partnership with him, and if he is in need of money to give him a share of mine, and to regard his offspring as equal to my brothers in male lineage and to teach them this art - if they desire to learn it - without fee and covenant; to give a share of precepts and oral instruction and all the other learning to my sons and to the sons of him who has instructed me and to pupils who have signed the covenant and have taken an oath according to the medical law, but no one else.
I will apply dietetic measures for the benefit of the sick according to my ability and judgment; I will keep them from harm and injustice.
I will neither give a deadly drug to anybody who asked for it, nor will I make a suggestion to this effect. Similarly I will not give to a woman an abortive remedy. In purity and holiness I will guard my life and my art.
I will not use the knife, not even on sufferers from stone, but will withdraw in favor of such men as are engaged in this work.
Whatever houses I may visit, I will come for the benefit of the sick, remaining free of all intentional injustice, of all mischief and in particular of sexual relations with both female and male persons, be they free or slaves.
What I may see or hear in the course of the treatment or even outside of the treatment in regard to the life of men, which on no account one must spread abroad, I will keep to myself, holding such things shameful to be spoken about.
If I fulfil this oath and do not violate it, may it be granted to me to enjoy life and art, being honored with fame among all men for all time to come; if I transgress it and swear falsely, may the opposite of all this be my lot.
A violation of the Hippocratic oath, if medical doctors still take that ancient relic of a dead western civilization created by white men.
democrats demand the death of others by any means they can make it happen.
From reading this it looks like they just want to require your Doctor To send your medical information to another Doctor willing to prescribe a lethal drug cocktail, if your Doctor isn’t willing. I dont see a problem.
Once while I was surf fishing and trying to unhook a catfish, he gave a big shake and drove one of his spines between where two fingers joined my hand. I had pliers, but was too chicken to yank out the spine. Thankfully, a couple was strolling down the beach and the man agreed to do the job.
I was chicken because of the anticipated pain after pulling out the spine.
To anyone contemplating suicide, think about the consequences AFTER your death. Do not let “Medically Assisted Suicide” keep you from those most serious questions of your life.
Is this really a good idea?
Do I KNOW where I will spend Eternity?
If you say “There is no Afterlife, there is no God” are you sure?
IOW, they outright lied like they always do.
Just strap ‘em in a chair and force them to watch NBC comedy show programming for one month. Repeat with CNN and MSLsdNBC as needed.
The progressive agenda marches on. Mandatory euthanasia is coming for those the state deems to be unproductive. Elderly, severely handicapped beware.
The more I see of Progressives actions, the more I am sure that those people are demon possessed.
The left/democrats are murderous people. They kill babies and call it “freedom”. They like killing, they enjoy it. It gives them the sense that they have the power over life and death. In essence... it makes them feel like they are a GOD! They’re truly EVIL people.
According to traditional Judeo-Christian beliefs, Suicide is the worst sin you can ever commit to destroy your chance for eternal life. You commit murder without the chance of repentance!
Victims of suicide were traditionally denied Christian funeral and burial in Christian cemetery.
I just do not know how you can force anybody to participate in this.
The people in California cannot be this bad, can they? It is not just the Governor that they are talking about recalling! Trying to force Doctors to violate their Hypocratic oath by law is dispicable!
Kill us off so they don’t have to pay our social security???
