Follow Up to Chuck Colson's Breakpoint Quality Control

At yesterday's Sunday School class I played for you an audio clip by Chuck Colson regarding the Health Care debate. His summation was that we need to read, think and listen to what is being presented to us and the questionable philosophical concepts of utilitarianism in response to Health Care. Now, Colson mentioned an individual by the name of Pete Singer. I confess, I didn't know a thing about who he was. I did some research and found an article that YOU all need to READ. He is a colleague of Dr. Ezekiel Emmuel who Colson talks about as well in Breakpoint. The article is called, Peter Singer: Architect of the Culture of Death.

If you have been attending Sunday School, the last few Sundays, we have been discussing Euthanasia and Quality of Life vs. Sanctity of Life. Pete Singer is a bio ethicist and is responsible for the Quality of Life arguments. I think you all will be surprised at what you are about to read. I am stunned, astounded that we have people in leadership who feel this way. As Christians, we need to be aware. This reminds me of a verse in Psalms 12:5, which I believe God will pour out His wrath on those who bring harm to the weak.

"Because of the oppression of the weak and the groaning of the needy, I will now arise," says the LORD. "I will protect them from those who malign them."
