“Did he say we could kill him?”
Imagine you’re in the hospital for a mastectomy–no one’s idea of fun, certainly not yours: but your doctor tells you you’ll survive it–and as they wheel you into the operating room, you’ve got another doctor in your ear with a sales pitch–
–For assisted suicide (https://freerepublic.com/focus/f-chat/4271588/posts)!
Canada legalized “Medical Assistance In Dying” (MAID, as in “Everybody ought to have a maid…”) a few years ago and by 2022 there were over 13,000 cases and assisted suicide is now the fifth leading cause of death in Canada. Only the Netherlands has a higher rate of assisted suicide.
What does this say for our Western civilization… which once was “Christendom”? Did we ever fail to live up to that label! When we’re not sexually mutilating children, we’re talking adults into letting us kill them when they might otherwise survive and get better. Is this a civilization or a death cult?
Pray hard, work hard, fight hard. It may be God will have mercy on us and save us from our sins and folly. He may even restore us to sanity.
