New track, same acceleration toward Hell
Well, no doubt now about Satan's next step. I knew it wasn't going to be polygamy, but I wasn't quick enough to spot the sudden acceleration toward euthanasia.
Wesley Smith points out that Colorado's proposed euthanasia law gets rid of all the old unenlightened restrictions.
No need to be terminally ill. If you want to die, you can force a doctor to kill you. It's that simple and direct.
Coloradans do not currently have the liberty to pursue happiness by obtaining a medical professional's assistance in achieving a peaceful death thru the administration of oral or intravenous drugs. The people of Colorado hereby proclaim that mentally competent adult residents of Colorado are Sovereign in the matter of personal medical decisions and have the liberty at life's end to set the time and tone of their own deaths, asking permission of no person or organization.Catch that? Liberty is death. Happiness is death. I have no idea what Liberty means, but Happiness is well defined. All the old wisdom tells us, and everyone who lives long enough realizes: Happiness (or Satisfaction or Contentment) is available to anyone in any condition. It's all about setting your expectations properly and noticing the positive departures from expectations. Defining happiness as death CLOSES OFF this process of adjustment and appreciation. It OPENS the path for doctors or parents or "support groups" to administer the prescription of Happiness when a youngster only needs an Expectation Adjustment, or an experience of completing a useful project, or maybe just a little tiny scrap of motherfucking RESPECT.
