Another “quick takes” on items where there is too little to say to make a complete article, but is still important enough to comment on.
The focus this time: That’s certainly one way to end mental illness.
First, a little mood music:
Carrying on…
California is considering allowing euthanasia to anyone with a “a grievous and irremediable medical condition”.
SB 1196 will replace “terminal disease” with “a grievous and irremediable medical condition.” A grievous and irremediable medical condition is a serious and incurable illness or disease that meets all of the following:
– Places the individual in a state of irreversible decline in capability;
– Causes the individual to endure physical or psychological suffering due to illness, disease, or state of decline that is intolerable to the individual and cannot be relieved in a manner the individual deems acceptable; and
– After taking into account all of the individual’s medical circumstances, it is reasonably foreseeable that the condition will become the individual’s natural cause of death.
SB 1196 demonstrates the mendacity routinely engaged in by the euthanasia movement. They promise limited access, only as a last resort. But they don’t mean it. These laws are continually expanded over time toward the final destination of death on demand as a human right and euthanasia normalized as the preferred — i.e. ‘dignified’ — way to die.
