In his article about the PERSONHOOD BILL, HB1, Dr. Joseph Glanfortoni stated:
“This law is flawed religiously, historically, scientifically and medically. The legalities and problems that this law could impose on the medical community and, for that matter, on the public as a whole could be catastrophic.”
This statement happens to be a perfect description of the notorious Roe vs Wade decision by the Supreme Court that unleashed a culture of death on the United States. There would be no need for HB1 and others had not Americans embraced the mass murder of their unwanted babies. After 39 years over 50,000,000 lives lost, far exceeding the numbers killed in the Holocaust. Americans were outraged at the killing by the Germans of 6,000,000 Jews but with the babies it’s “what’s the big deal, its legal”.
The sad fact is that the American Medical Association and the American College of OB/GYNs have long ago officially embraced this killing by abortionist as a ‘standard of care for unwanted pregnancies’.
As the medical profession now is working its way through the ‘ethical’ ramifications of euthanasia and its acceptance by the public, the elderly and the handicap need to know they are next. We will soon see the medical schools awarding a new specialty, MDD- Medical Doctor of Death.
