It’s OK to kill someone if it’s called *euthanasia* [...]

The radical pro-life press is about the only news source less reliable than the MSM. It's sad for those who should be understanding the proscription of bearing false witness (though, admittedly, not all are Judeo-Christian) to seemingly revel in the deception and mischaracterizations they so often push.

The fact is, this was not euthanasia, either voluntary or involuntary. That's just a propaganda term to mislead people.

In fact, there's no "clinic," per se...the group (Dignitas) had to rent an apartment, since these cases are so rare (unlike what the scare tactics try to imply to unwary readers).

But are there financing options?

In the video Ewert says, "I am tired of the disease but I am not tired of living.

Freeze right there.

This person is obviously showing conflicting feelings about the matter.

There was a time when depression was the FIRST THING doctors treated when a patient was suicidal.

I agree. Suicide is not a front line defense with regards to medical practice.

Sounds like he was very confused and conflicted.

I could be wrong, but I wonder how much wealth he had to spread around after his death? Insurance that some didn't feel like waiting for? Perhaps he was egged on?

I would like to see the numbers.
