God's foolishness


A fellow student posted this to our class Facebook page initially asking people to reconsider assisted suicide because of spiritual reasons (which might not have been the best thing to do, tbh...).  Needless to say it got a fair amount of virtual stink eyes and offended commentators.  He couldn't possibly imagine being in that much pain, people have the right to choose how they want to die, religion shouldn't effect policy, etc.  All reasonable points, definitely.  After having been at the bedside of loved ones suffering, and seen life support being taken off and other painful circumstances, I can't say that I would condemn someone like Brittany for making such a decision, and perhaps I wouldn't even try to change her mind.
