  Right to Die Issue Terminally Ill, Hopelessly Paralized, Etc..What Are Your Thoughts?

  by frankiespeakin in

  first off let me say this is not about me, i'm happy and healthy.

  it really about all the suffering i see people going thru.

  examples in my family over the years have caused me to think very seriously this.. i could give you a couple of examples and i'm sure some of our posters can tell other horror stories they'd witnessed where perhaps it would have been much better for them and their family if they could have passed away painlessly and with much more dignity.. one of my sisters developed breast cancer and died after about a 12month struggle, we saw her waste away to just skin and bones, it was hard on me as well as her two young children and husband.

  A terminally ill patient that has been diagnosed by the two doctors, that MAY get the sympathy factor from people, but when you start talking about chronic depression, thats where you lose most people on the right to die stuff. I support 100% the right of the terminally ill to die with dignity, but I don't support depressed individuals being given the right to commit suicide. This is a treatable condition. The problem here is that we stigmatize mental illness in this country (the US), and insurance doesn't cover it or doesn't cover it adequately. With therapy and sometimes drugs, people can live happy productive lives.

  "Robert Downey Jr.'s 'Sherlock Holmes' isn't for the Doyle faithful"

  so the headlines say.. i saw the movie yesterday and enjoyed it tremendously.

  i am very happy that robert downy jr. appears to have gotten control of his personal demons.. i don't worry about sir arthur conan doyle spinning in his grave.

  if he is, it is probably with great joy that the character he created has proven to be so entertaining and inspirational to millions of people, and thus shall it ever be, amen.. downey's sherlock is as cerebral as rathbone's, but with an added element of physicality.

  AnnOMaly I was JUST going to say the same thing. Jeremy Brett NAILED Sherlock Holmes. I have most of the series and always watch for marked down dvd's of the rest. Its just not the same after you see the best.

  The concept of the trinity itself came from the pagans (as most other ideas). Maiden Mother Crone in Goddess worship. I'm not a scholar so I can't give you particulars, perhaps someone else can post that information. But if you are looking to avoid all things pagan you best just give up all together.

  Christmas or Christ's Mass – which will you be celebrating?

  by eyeslice in

  2. friends

  neither.. i have no affinity at all to the commercial christmas.

  i do, however, think that the religious celebration is not as wicked as the society has made out.

  ok, it maybe at the wrong time of the year but it is clear that the birth of christ was something to celebrate at the time and is still worth remembering today.. .

  So RedRedRose was your wife's username, yours was originally Coaster. Then your wife decided that she didn't like the site, went back to the witnesses and turned you in to the elders? Do I have that right? Just trying to follow the story, which is pretty confusing.

  Sorry, Oompa, its painful I know, but life can be good for you once more.
