You are right. Over the years, I've even had doctors tell me,"You know what to do." But when killing of any sort is made legal, the pagan and uncatechized masses think "legal" means acceptable. The state is their conscience. So encouraging to hear what's happening in Belgium!
Kathy....is this where morphine comes in? I had always heard that once doctors had hospice workers deliver morphine then it is pretty much all over. This is unfortunatly what happened to me with my daughter. It has tormented me for many years now but am at peace with it now becuase I just did not know what I was dong. My daughter's phnemona had gotten so bad the doctors told me she was suffering and they wanted to start her on morphine. I was extremely confussed by the dosage they told me to give her so tried to be as accurate as I could with the conversions because it was not clear. I gave her a dose at 6 pm and she died 3 hours later. It has troubled me for years that I may have caused her death unknowlingly from following doctors orders and not understanding the dosage. I am at peace with it now because God took her home and away from her suffering but still always wonder.
…the Christian faith is no longer allowed to express itself visibly… in the name of tolerance, tolerance is being abolished. —POPE BENEDICT XVI, Light of the World, A Conversation with Peter Seewald, p. 52-53
Archbishop Kaigama of Nigeria has reacted to the UN demands for the Church to reverse every aspect of its sexual teaching by telling them that they are prejudiced against the Church and ignorant of the reasons and background to its teaching. He accuses the UN of being a voice of western and totally secular values and of trying to buy and bully Africa and Catholicism into adopting its deeply flawed moral values. (It's good that someone is 'telling it like it is' but should it be left to an Archbishop?)
