I don’t see the difference between killing an infant with a terminal condition and infanticide. Why is it okay to kill an innocent baby that has been born despite all attempts to kill it just because it has a terminal condition?
Are you saying LifeNews, National Review Online **and countless other sources are lying?? **Are stating mistruths??
You’re welcome.
Thank you.
Wow! This was great. Thanks for posting.
Yes. We have become a shallow and superficial secular humanistic narcisistic society. A society where people get their information from TV commercials and flaming left wing Hollywood. Yes…this is a chastisement. May God grant people wisdom and tears of repentance.
PM me the studies if you have them. This doesn’t matter here anyway, since the numbers are sourced and we can check the sources online.
What? In 2009 you had 12 suicides per 100 000 in the US, and 11.9 suicides per 100 000 in Norway and Denmark. That’s proportionate. I don’t understand your complaint. Neither am I aware that assisted suicide is legal in Scandinavia.
Because the child is going to die anyway (terminal condition), and most probably within a short period of time. What is the difference (for a newborn) between dying at birth (t=0.xh (where t=time and h=hours)) and t=24h (say). Probably a whole lot of pain, and little else.
Disagree
If that was the reason they would have been charged with murdering their wives. But the Gospel teaches us that the ‘hard hearted people’ of those times, forced Moses to write such a Law for them. Therefore, what you said is no doubt an invention, irrespective of who taught you that.
It happens to make sense all over the world. Every sin may not be judged by humans, only those which threaten social harmony and justice. If someone refuses to believe in God, no one may punish the person.
Thank you for the links.
You say you are Catholic. Do you believe that abortion is intrinsically evil? And do you accept all of the Church’s teachings about abortion always being objectively an act of murder? Because my primary sources for this teaching are the Catechism of the Catholic Church and Pope John Paul II’s encyclical, The Gospel of Life.
Indeed. I thought I could not be any more disheartened in 2008, but I was wrong. The country has turned from honor, from leadership, from success, and has become a nation of spoiled brats who seem about 5 years old, “HE has what I want! Give it to me! Give it to me NOW!!”
Hmmm. First, I probably shouldn’t be going off on a tangent here, and second, I am not an expert on causes of the Civil War. I do have to point out, however, that as far as slavery goes, most mainstream historians now agree that this was the main issue sparking the war and not states’ rights. I guess that one side didn’t want to say that they were fighting to keep a morally reprehensible institution and the other didn’t want to say that they were fighting for the rights of whom they considered to be an inferior people. Maybe by saying the cause was states’ rights it kinda made them more comfortable with what they were really doing. (The latter is my opinion only.) Why this country chose to keep teaching the whole states’ rights cause to generations of school children, I don’t know. Purely beyond my poor power to add or detract.
And of course the Democrats use the abortion card to appeal to their base, and they mean every word of it, and promise to promote and protect abortion. Should Catholics vote for candidates who promise to protect and defend a moral evil? It is simply indefensible.
I sure don’t thank God for the Democrat supported Murder Machine known as Planned Parenthood.

Even if a baby is terminally ill, they still should be taken care of to the best of our ability. I don’t see your point.
