Who Decides When You Die?
Has the word “bioethics” become an oxymoron
in 21st century America? It seems that the recommendations
coming from the field of bioethics these days, such as “rational” suicide,
right to die, embryonic stem cell research (aka human
cloning), killing by dehydration, and euthanizing infants,
are anything but ethical. A better description of them
might include words like practical, cost-effective, and
convenient.
Yes, the foundations have shifted while we were asleep.
Many bioethicists now view the very young, very old,
and severely disabled as “nonpersons” whose
lives have no value. Not Wesley J. Smith. Come hear Smith,
attorney, author, and one of the nation’s top thinkers
in bioethics, clear up the confusion surrounding these
life-and-death issues and explain how the seismic shift
away from the Christian understanding of the sanctity
of life may one day put us all in peril.
