Group “Virgin Mary Should Have Aborted” Taken Down
Tens
of thousands of people complained about a Facebook page that promotes the
notion that the Virgin Mary should have had an abortion. Titled “Virgin
Mary Should’ve Aborted,” the administrator of the page claims
to “explain what really happened in the biblical times, since the bible
is full of lies.”

Family Sues Because Nursing Home Won’t Starve Mother to Death
This
is how far the culture of death has come.
This
is how far the culture of death has come.
I reported earlier
about the controversy in Canada in which a family wants a nursing home to
stop spoon feeding their mother because she would not want to be kept alive
with Alzheimer’s. But no one has the right to be starved. They have the
right to refuse medical treatment–for example when sustenance has to
be provided by tube. But “artificial nutrition and hydration” may
be medical treatment under the law–I would prefer it weren’t–but
spoon feeding is humane care that should never be denied. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/
