More and more people who are terminally ill are choosing assisted suicide. When is it Right to Die?…
Want to Read $ 11.49"We would communicate a far more compassionate message to those who are terminally ill and dying—and to be honest, even to those for whom dying is a long way off—if we focused our energies on helping people die right. To die right. That’s what it’s all about. Unfortunately, euthanasia has become a popular topic because people are led to believe that death by suicide or homicide is more dignified than dying naturally."-Joni Eareckson Tada, When Is It Right to Die?: A Comforting and Surprising Look at Death and Dying
"...You, my friend, are society. So welcome to the club of community, and even though some may try to drown out other styles of discourse with shouts about personal rights, the community may have a thing or two to say, and it may say it a lot louder. After all, community can only progress when its individuals exercise higher moral choices, and community is sacrificed when individuals choose with only themselves in mind."-Joni Eareckson Tada, When Is It Right to Die?: A Comforting and Surprising Look at Death and Dying
