The Effects Of The Assault On The Right To Life In The United States

An Idaho man was charged with killing his three kids because their quality of life was lowered after he and his wife divorced. That sounds like a argument that combines the justification for euthanasia with the evidence pro-marriage advocates use to prove why supporting strong marriages is the best policy.

The ACLU is an advocate of the “right to die” issue even to entering friend of the court brief defending a lower court who determined the due process of law provision covered the “right to die”. The cases covered were from Washington and New York.

The ACLU’s policy is to push the envelope as far as the can on the so called “right to life”. In her commentary Futile Care: The Terri Schiavo Case Diane Alden states “The list of "quality of life" standards is growing. It is a list consisting of elements on the slippery slope from being humane to being rid of the unwanted. It has evolved from simply withholding heroic efforts to save a brain-dead or terminal human to a laundry list of whether or not we are costly to maintain, unproductive, dependent, burdensome, poor or depressed.” I believe that the goal of the ACLU is to advance the elite liberal eugenicist goal of getting rid of all those they view as unfit. The left are thus marketing that worldview to the people of the United States, who previously rejected it after seeing the horrors of Nazi Germany. I saw a Star Trek show that advocated assisted suicide even when the person was a financial burden to their family. It makes me wonder if the Logan’s Run scenario of people past a certain age being put to death, is not where we are heading in the United States.

Divorce is proven to harm children and thus reduce their quality of life as is concluded by the report “An Exploration of the Ramifications of Divorce on Children and Adolescents” by Sara Eleoff. Part of her conclusion was “Divorce and its ensuing ramifications can have a significant and life-altering impact on the well being and subsequent development of children and adolescents.”

Now combining what is known about the harmful effects of divorce and the worldview advocated by the ACLU and their allies Jim Junior Nice made a rational and compassionate decision. The ACLU’s goal seems to be to recreate the vast majority of the people of the United States in the image Mr. Nice. I stand against such rationalizing, and with the founders of the United States in their support of everyone’s right to life.
