Who's next?

[papasangel]

It seems that you can get away with murder using the legal system which is supposed to protect the innocent. As in the case of Terri Schivo who was literally starved to death because her husband wished it to be.

Who is next? Grandma and Grandpa? Why not ? Haven't they become a drain on the system? Aren't they an "inconvienence"? How about a premie? Obivously born too early and having problems? How about the mentally ill? or the homeless? or those who just don't "fit in" to society? What is to stop this from happening?

Its already happening in other parts of the world. Gennocide, infantacide, suicide occurs overseas in other countries. How long before its an acceptable practice here in the US too?

You may think I am ranting here but folks this is important. We already abort unwanted babies and the next step (Terri Schivao) has been taken. For what reason?

Do those babies or Terri present a threat to society? NO Do they need love and care and food? YES but so does anyone else on this planet too.

Think about it for a while. What about if you were unable to communicate your wishes and someone wanted to pull the plug on you too by denying you basic care as food and water? It was not a pretty way to go and would have been far humaner to just give her a shot to put her to sleep like we do the inmates on death row. I don't advocate the taking of life just making a comparison here.

What can we do to change this?

All the government pretense aside: Soon with the Baby Boomers aging, our Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid will be overwhelmed. This is their way of getting us used to pulling the plug on 'hopeless cases' to save a few bucks in the system....... Governments are filthy things.

The only I can think about this MAYBE not happening to you, is to have a written will. Now of course, this world is so twisted that it might find a way to ignore your will, who knows.

This world belongs to Satan. What are we to expect from it. God will destroy it.

In the meantime, we, christians, are to proclaim our Savior to all in order to plant a seed in people's heart for God to make it grow. We are in a constant spiritual war and we are to use our God-given gifts to shed light in this world of darkness.

Pray for judgement on our government. This is in the spiritual realm of our Lord, and I think beyond our doing anything about it. If it is the beast rising then it is meant to be this way and what we'll do about it is die. It is how we go that will matter, and He has promised that even if they kill us not a hair on our heads will perish....... that's assuming you have hair on your head....

I got this from prophesy news watch

Dutch Gov't Considers Expanding Euthanasia to Handicapped, Infants

The Dutch government, the first to legalize euthanasia for some terminally ill people, will tackle an even thornier ethical dilemma: what to do when doctors say it is best to end the lives of infants, the mentally handicapped or the demented.

Euthanasia opponents view the idea with horror, but The Royal Dutch Medical Association believes guidelines and a panel of experts should be created to vet such cases.

Health Secretary Clemence Ross, who has opposed expanding the current euthanasia rules, will send an opinion to Parliament in three or four weeks, said her spokesman, Richard Lancee.

If Ross approves, doctors acting with the families' permission would not be punished for administering lethal sedatives to "people with no free will," in cases that pass review.

Under current law, euthanasia is restricted to terminal patients suffering unbearable pain with no hope of improvement, and who request to die when they are of sound mind. Each case is reviewed by a panel of medical experts.

The new proposal calls for a similar panel for patients who cannot express themselves, with the addition of a judge or court official, giving a legal veneer to a practice that technically would remain illegal.

For advocates, the issue is one of transparency: Past studies have shown that doctors already carry out a handful of such euthanasia cases each year.

In the best known example, the Groningen Medical Center announced last year it euthanized four severely ill newborns in 2004, under guidelines known as "the Groningen Protocol"

It started with abortion and now has expanded to include euthanasia. Next thing will be legalized is doctor assisted suicide. The future is not looking to bright on this planet. I hope Jesus Christ returns soon.

I think this dear soul has touched the hearts of many as we watched and prayed over her these past weeks. The implications of her treatment are just as you said hmh. The wide spread publication of her case and condition will no doubt be the fuel for other problems to arise. The Judge ignoring congress was just another test of Judicial power. The Supreme Court Judges set the pace for that. They are taking upon themselves more authority than our constitution gives them, yet they go unchallenged with any real congressional authority.

My heart goes out to her family tonight. I pray the Lord gives them strength for the days ahead and comforts them in their pain.

Lord, we praise You for You alone are God, and we thank You for all Your mighty acts. How awesome are You Father! I ask You tonight that You forgive us our gross sin against You. Lord You are a loving and merciful God. Forgive our nation for allowing so much to creep in that is against You and Your holiness, righteousness and purity. Forgive us, Father. Make us once again a nation that puts You first and above all else. Help us to return to You with hearts filled with praise and gratitude, with the knowledge that we are a needy people. Needy of a God who alone is the reason we are and who alone is the reason our nation has prospered above other nations. Forgive us Lord for the gross sin of pride and help us walk humbly with You Lord. Help us to yield to Your word, the living word of God, and abide in You as we wait daily upon You and sit close to You wanting to know You more. Fill us, Lord, with an awe at who You are and let your peace, mercy anf goodness be in the daily lives of all who reach out to You. In Jesus name I pray, Father. Touch Terrie's family tonight, Lord. Bless them and help them through this season of grief in their lives. Bring them comfort and strength. I thank You Abba, for You are worthy and You are the Lord that knows and hears and answers His children. I love You Lord. In Jesus name I pray. Amen.

I don't know if it's so much the government as it is the special interest groups.It seems to me that they've made themselves redundant by making everything a special interest.

Owww. I got a hangnail. Dand it, I'm gonna sue.
