Greetings,
I dont believe these people have the intelligence to even approach this type of situation yet. These are the same people who argue that euthanasia - ending a life in a humane way according to a person's wishes is wrong as opposed to suffocating or starving someone to death when they have no say in the matter because they cant be bothered making the continued effort.
MrCoffee said "Have you ever though of working for C.A.N.? Or, is that where your last paycheck came from?"
That could be taken as a personal insult, which we don't allow here.
Nem said "we need a separate forum for abortion issues so they dont get mixed up with everything else"
These things can be discussed in the Genetics and related issues forum.
Its for genetics and related issues, and abortion can be related to genetics depending on the circumstance.
:cry: That is so sad, what message are kids getting about this whole case, that its ok to let someone starve to death?
That kid had more heart and care than her own husband.
Your over-dramatic post doesn't dignify an answer from me, sorry.
Well we don't know, kids do have ideas themselves sometimes, we have kids who post here who have original and strong ideas of their own.
Nem, you don't know the boy's reasons either, so you are assuming as much as anyone else.
I share your sentiments Monastic.
Nem said "Schiavo is brain dead. Her mind/soul/consciousness/whatever you want to call it is NO MORE.
SHES GONE AND SHE AINT COMING BACK. "
Have you medically examined her? You don't know that her soul is gone. Its just nonsense to declare such a thing.
The latest reports I find extremely distressing. Its hard to express how I feel.
:cry:
What Dolly has said is true, wikipedians do not have to prove statements with legal facts, articles are often written and re-written extensively, and there are battles on some with opinions being offered for either side, the autism pages have been an example of that.
That article, right now, yes, but that is because that article will be recieving a lot of attention. On wikipedia as a whole people write their views and theories
and it stands unless someone writes something else, in a few weeks people will have re-written the Terry Schiavo article and probaly put numerous other facts in there.
I think he was referring to people who would be killed or "alllowed to die" for the convenience of others.
