Because the atheist doctor knows that the patient would be dying under false pretenses.<br /><br />Like, if my patient said "Help me end my suffering. Heaven will be so much better than this life," I think I'd be wrong to pursue the euthanisation option, because the patient has factored the afterlife into their reasoning, and according to my atheism, their reasoning is thus incorrect.Chrisnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-362590194397112658.post-52968914191625268742010-04-28T20:09:49.000-04:002010-04-28T20:09:49.000-04:00Dr.Kevorkian ..

What if were this god or that god, or this afterlife instead of that one. Should we also believe in UFOs, ghosts, bigfoot, astrology, and the lock ness monster as well because there's a small chance it may be true, no matter how small? Healthy skepticism keeps you sane really.<br /><br />www.willquestion.com Will Fuquanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-362590194397112658.post-21683087254861521442010-04-27T22:53:38.000-04:002010-04-27T22:53:38.000-04:00Would someone please give Cavuto a lozenge?Would someone please give Cavuto a lozenge?Steven Madingnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-362590194397112658.post-63353514614574470922010-04-27T19:46:33.000-04:002010-04-27T19:46:33.000-04:00Fucking awesome...

Tucker, J.D.

The Church has been the largest single contributor to campaigns opposing aid-in-dying legislation and ballot measures. [FN34]"<br /><br />And what's in [FN34]?<br />"[FN34]<span><span> The Catholic Church contributed: $777,782 (53.74% of the opponents' budget) in Washington State in 2008; $1,288,894 (73.9%) in Maine in 2000; $2,173,330 (38.0%) in Michigan in 1998; $1,677,699 (73.6%) in the 1997 Oregon campaign; $968,806 (59.3%) in the 1994 Oregon campaign; $2,199,986 (60.6%) in California in 1992; and $745,951 (64.5%) in Washington in 1991.</span></span>"<br /><br />The Tucker article is important but I must say that I think it's possible to protect patients from doctors who don't want to tell them all the medical options, without forcing doctors to do what they think is immoral.
