Interesting views on sensitive topic
I read with interest about assisted dying and comments made by Lucy Allan MP and her view on the subject.
One opposing view was that it’s against God’s laws.
Wow, surely the writer cannot mean the Christian deity? He who drowned the world population in a flood or the genocide and massacres of Canaanites (Numbers 21:2-3, Deuteronomy 20:17, Joshua 6:17-21 The Midianites (Numbers 31:17-18) the Amalekites (Exodus 17:13) to name some.
The Christian God’s law is there for all to see; kill, kill, kill. I doubt even that evil entity would raise an eyebrow at despatching someone in the terminal stages of an incurable disease.
