The Slippery Slope Just Got a Lot More Slippery & Steeper

Yes, the headline below is correct. But not surprizing when you look at the mindset of the "culture of death". Lose a loved one, commit suicide, save the taxpayers money. This is what happens when you turn your back on God & reject the God given right to life for all. (as found in natural law as well as Scripture) This is a prime example of their mindset of calling evil good & good evil.

FYI: The Catholic Church clearly delineates between a person of diminished mental capacity who is not aware of what he or she is doing & someone in this situation who willfully takes his or her own life. IMHO, this is a mortal sin plain & simple. With all the consequences attached.
Kyrie, eleison!

Swiss Clinic Plans Assisted Suicide of Healthy English Woman

The founder of the Swiss assisted-suicide clinic Dignitas revealed plans Thursday to help a healthy wife die alongside her terminally ill husband.
Ludwig Minelli described suicide as a “marvellous opportunity” that should not be restricted to the terminally ill or people with severe disabilities.
The Dignitas clinic, based in a Zurich apartment, claims to have already assisted in the suicides of more than 100 British people.
Minelli said that anyone who has “mental capacity” should be allowed to have an assisted suicide, claiming that it would save money for the National Health Service.
He said that he expected to go to the Swiss courts to seek a ruling in the controversial case of a Canadian couple who have asked to die together.
“The husband is ill, his partner is not ill but she told us here in my living room that, ’If my husband goes, I would go at the same time with him’,” he said.
Minelli, a human rights lawyer, tells The Report on BBC Radio 4 Thursday that the British had an “obsession” with the requirement to be terminally ill.
“It is not a condition to have a terminal illness,” he said. “Terminal illness is a British obsession. As a human rights lawyer I am opposed to the idea of paternalism. We do not make decisions for other people.
“We should have a nicer attitude to suicide, saying suicide is a very good possibility to escape."
