Life-Minded 6 - Physician Assisted Suicide & Euthanasia
Show Notes

New Mexico recently decriminalized physician-assisted suicide.  Ten U. S. jurisdictions now sanction the practice, in addition to Canada, the Netherlands, Belgium, Switzerland, and Luxembourg.  As life expectancy increases worldwide and a greater proportion of our population becomes elderly, the temptation to use death as a solution intensified.  Pastor Salemink of Lutherans For Life examines what assisted suicide is, why it's dangerous, what the alternatives are, and what we can do to protect our communities.
