Canada Encourages the Poor to Kill Themselves

I'd like some Canadians to weigh in on this.... Plus I don't know if these statistics, etc. are true? I just don't trust most media is all.

Canada encouraging veterans to commit suicide

Last year, there was a thing with Canada encouraging veterans to commit suicide, and, well... now this idea seems to be expanding.

So, we learn from the Book of Ezekiel, that one of the main reasons for the destruction of Sodom was mistreatment of the poor....
But what we see here, goes so much farther than mere mistreatment or neglect... how completely surrendered to Satan does someone have to be to act as his mouthpiece in this way?

They would rather have the poor dead than let them become an inconvenience... but too cowardly to simply slaughter them- no, you have to convince them that they want to die first, so as to get their consent... that way you don't have to feel bad- in fact, your even doing them a favor, putting them out of their misery.

Saying that this is abhorrent is really an understatement, but I'm going to leave it at that for now, because, I could probably go on about this forever. I hope everyone will pray for the poor, and against this awful wicked scheme.

Like most things in life with good intent, they’re always taken to the extreme.
I support the ideas of assisted suicide with a painful terminal disease but to send people to death because they’re hopeless? That’s crazy in my opinion.
How about sharing with the The Hope of Jesus Christ first?

Hey Eli, hope you've been well.

There are several foundational issues with assisted suicide.
One is that, because of both the nature and severity, we enter a slippery slope the moment we create even the tiniest law making it permissible in any way.
The slippery slope is immediate.

I think this makes it far too dangerous to even discuss.


You take care brother, and have a great week.

My stance on assisted suicide is that it should be granted to people in physical pain who have no chance for a cure (and are going to die anyway in pain) and are mentally sound to make the decision themselves.

You see, assisted suicide is getting some traction in North America because recently is has become a thing here but this has been standard practice in Switzerland 10 years ago or more.
‘I remember the news for example of a 30 something year old woman who walked into a clinic because she was bored with sitcoms, microwave dinners and the modern world - these were her words - and she killed herself. Can you imagine that?
This is the kind of insanity that needs to be regulated not denying someone in pain a peaceful death.

The problem is this is a very difficult judgment to make, doctors are often wrong and have other motives.

Tell me from where does a doctor derive the moral authority to end a life?

OKay, so now we’re immediately going into conspiracy theories, THE DOCTORS, THE VACCINE AND BILL GATES.
How can we have a conversation with that kind of mindset?

Why do we have to doubt the jobs and competency of millions of good people in every profession? I mean think about this logically.
Leaving aside all the politics, this is as humane and compassionate when you put your sick dog down.
It‘s as simple as that. You’re sparing suffering.



Yes so this part is crazy doctors and the laws of that country. I’m not endorsing that.

No conspiracy, doctors like to make money and some have a "god complex."

I like doctors for the most part.

Do you think your view is a secular worldview or a biblical worldview?
Man was given dominion over the animals, I am pretty sure your point is a false equivalency.

Yes I am aware that doctors in general have a God complex, this is basically the ego that we all have, but theirs is shown because they have to fix our physical body.
My point of view is a practical point of view. It‘s a humane thing to do to allow someone to go on the next journey after they’ve completed their bodily existence here when there is no further cure for their disease and they’re in constant pain.

People have different tolerance for pain so how will the doctor or the person decide when pain is too much?
What will the metric be for incurable?

How close do they need to be to death, three weeks, two years?

Why should a doctor have to be involved in this decision?
Does God have anything to say about this?

I think you’re giving the doctor too much decision making here. I’m saying this is up to the patient. The doctor doesn’t make the call.
The doctor is just the facilitator.
When a patient says that he has a terminal disease, which has no cure, and he is in constant pain all day and is ready to go to God then why not give him the option? It’s the humane thing to do.

But when this practice turns into suicide tourism like it has been in Switzerland then this is the wrong thing to do.

What does God have to say about this? I’m leaving this aside for the moment because then we will go into interpretations and philosophies that would get more confusing.

Im approaching this from a compassionate manner where I don’t want to see a loved one in pain which would be hard for them and for the rest of us watching.
