I know a few people who have removed feeding tubes from elderly parents. They thought nothing of it, and even believed it was a good thing. It's rather difficult trying to then explain to that person that he/she killed their parent(s), though I did make an attempt. But WHO's going to want to face that reality after they've done it?

I suspect the pathology here is similar to that of abortion, and goes along with (what I call) Liberal Credo #1: The more people do a wrong thing, the less wrong it becomes.

People need to realize that one cannot receive attonement through others' sins. The only way to receive attonement is to repent and do what one can to make up for one's sins. Christ didn't just die to save people who commit minor sins. Crhist can save even those who have committed murder, if they truly and humbly repent for what they've done and seek his forgiveness.
