1. This Could Be Your Grandpa: Indirect Euthanasia Via Health Insurance? October 31, 2009 A sad story in Miami, Florida regarding health insurance was recently brought to my attention. It highlights the flaws inherent in both public and private health insurance plans, and is an example of why healthcare reform is so important. A friend of mine has an ailing grandfather, named Benito Jimenez. Benito's daughter, Maria Conroy cares for him 24/7, and has taken charge of navigating the complexities of his insurance coverage. Her 85-year-old father has Medicare, but also has a Medicare Advantage administered by Humana. This would seem like an ideal compromise of the government and corp...

3. America it is very late - Do you know where your Congressman is? July 28, 2009 Reminiscent of the fall of Rome Congressional seats may soon be harder to give away rather than raising a fortune to gain. In fairness it would be hard to prove the congress has a clue but the real question is what are they going to do now that the rest of America is starting to get a clue? The clues are starting to come in at an alarming rate because many Americans are sitting down and actually reading the bills the congress doesn’t seem to have time to study. The stimulus, healthcare, and hate crimes read like a cross between a child’s fairy tale and the dark musings of Jean Paul Sartr... (read more) Author: Michael Bresciani

5. Dog Health Care Article: When It's Time To Say Good Bye June 08, 2009 The decision to euthanize a pet is for most owners a difficult choice. Consultation with your veterinarian will help you make the right choice. Some pet owners are unable to cope with the daily care of an ill pet. The tasks around the care, cleaning, feeding, and expense can build resentment towards the pet and would rob them of happy memories.

7. Am I my brother's keeper? May 26, 2009 I recently read a very interesting book The Bookseller of Kabul written by Åsne Seierstad. The book provides a snapshot of an Afghan family and their daily lives. From a Western point of view the patriarchal society and the oppression of both women and men is probably shocking, but for those people it is a way of life. The book raised an interesting question for me. The question does not only cover large issues such as making war against another country with a different culture. Think about smaller issues such as abortions, arranged marriages, or parents putting pressure on children t... (read more) Author: Elsabe Smit

8. How to Deceive the Very Elect - Eschatological Gobbledygook January 25, 2009 The connection between politics and eschatology (Christ’s second coming) is little known to all but a few today. This enables many whacky and sometimes dangerous political figures to slip in un-noticed by a slumbering and apostate church. That even those politicians don’t know the role they are playing offers little consolation. How can we avoid this? Between Hollywood, the new craze for Christian novels (fiction) and the old series of “Left Behind” flicks the average person, Christian or not, has been shown a picture of last day’s figures and personalities that is anything but accurate. ...

16. The Morality of Murder and Funerary Practices September 12, 2007 There are a lot of questions concerning murder that our society faces. Within our society there are contradictory opinions on such topics as abortion, death penalty and euthanasia. Many people view these to be murder, to others they are necessary in society. This demonstrates that even within our own society, there is a dispute between what is moral and what is immoral. Each moral absolute has an exception. This removes a possibility of Moral Absolutism, and confirms that there is no universal truth. Another reason I think in cultural relativism is because it is helpful in certain situations. ...

A negatively conditioned patient with an entreaty to stop suffering should not be shunned only because people around him or her are not undergoing his or her version of terrible pain. Healthy people do not realize how these fatal illnesses can torture a person slowly until his or her death. Other people who suffer are loved ones to those people who have brain damage and have stayed in a vegetable or coma-like state and have no chance for recovering. These kith and kin ar...

19. Euthanasia as a Way to Relieve People's Suffering and Reduce Pointless Expenses September 10, 2007 Should doctors interfere in the natural life process and proceed to support the life of people, even if it means allowing these people to go through intolerable suffering so they can live another day? People should understand that killing is not worse then allowing to die, and active euthanasia can not be considered worse than passive euthanasia.

Once in a terminal condition, the patient should be disposed under a condition of understanding, where he or she can make a decision concerning the outcome of his or her l...
