TUESDAY QUOTE OF THE WEEK - XVII

FINDING TRUTH WHEREVER IT MAY BE FOUND: "The only place outside of Heaven where you can be perfectly safe from all the dangers and perturbances of love is hell." - C. S. Lewis
QUOTE II - "Love never denies the faults of others, but it does refuse to reduce people to or equate them with their failings." - Vincent J. Genovesi


IN OTHER NEWS:

The National Catholic Bioethics Center (NCBC), established in 1972, conducts research, consultation, publishing and education to promote human dignity in health care and the life sciences, and derives its message directly from the teachings of the Catholic Church. The results of this research are available though this website.


When the barn burned down and a new one built, the Mail Pouch sign was greatly missed. Here is a picture in which we are in the middle of repainting it. Thought it might brighten you day.

I checked your article on assisted suicide. and WOW is it biased.
Your last post [ totally cool by the way…]] talks about dispelling ignorance or complacency of the masses [ no pun intended]
, Yet this article that I reviewed that you posted in a link is totally contradictory.
the FRAIL AND WEAK are different than those who are in total suffering, there is a fine line tween the two.
I have seen many people end their life with great dignity and a communion with their god when they “ ended it all”. Many of these have been quite powerful experiences for me to witness. .
I even had to ask very spiritually and holy people about their decisions because it was beyond my pea brained consciousness.
I have seen the most godless dorks become SAINTS and have had spiritual resolve on a matter of a few days if not moments. It would totally blow ya away!!!!!!!!!!!!!
it was DIGNITY, and PEACE.. it was NOT patronizing the “ unknown factor” of someone elses statement s for salvation … but a personal resolve that all this is transitory in what life is all about., and truly created an identity with GOD consciousness.
its interesting that the percentage of people observed [ 59%] making decisions [ for the lesser percentage] were HEALTY AND IN CONTROL of their life's. .
So how do you know the 39% were so desperate they would do ANYTHING rather than face their reality,[ death] that they have one foot on the “ banana peel” so to speak and should make peace with their god rather than have one last “ fling” with this illusion we call reality.???
its totally biased. . and to reaffirm it with a quote from the last pope does NOT make it a TRUTH or a FACT or an ACTUALTY referring to ONE persons struggle with this illusion we call life.
ASK that to some one how in their declining years, or those who are suffering from the ravages of age and or disease is/are in CONSTANT PAIN!!!!!!!!!! .
Oh… I'm sorry., you [ not personally you ] cant. . THEY don’t count.
it’s a COMMITTEE of healthy people who will make that DECISION FOR THEM!!!!!!!
duhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!.
WHERES THE TRUTH IN THAT ??????????/
I find you inspirational . but on other articles like the one you referred your fans to VERY disappointing,. !!!!!!!. and it promotes not the personal desire to accept what is said. but being TOLD that this[ the article] is truth .. it leaves me in a state of confusion . thats contradictory to TRUTH.
thanks :)
