About a month ago, I posted a question on the dangers of a living will with a link to a post on the subject by Al Mohler. Mohler has posted again on the subject of euthanasia.
There are several possible answers -
- The individuals themselves (hence “living wills”)
- Doctors or scientists
- Society as represented by government
- Family members most affected by the circumstances of the person
- God’s will as revealed by Him in His Word
There are problems with all five: Not everyone knows what is best for themselves. Doctors/scientist are by no means infallible and can be prejudiced by certain factors. Society/government and family members all prey to the same problems as doctors/scientists. Not everyone agrees as to what God’s Word reveals (although, certainly as God, whatever His will is, would be correct. The problem lies with understanding His will and making sure we don’t interpret His will to agree with our line of thinking.)

Here is a interesting question? Which is preferable to you, monotheism or polytheism? Your answer can include some variation, of course. What I am interested in is why do you prefer one over the other? Does it matter to you if the religion you prefer is true? Why or why not?

This post has a number of links on different aspects of the Creationism versus Evolution debate. If you are willing to take the time, you get to hear from both sides of the issue.

How different are men from women? Do you approach certain people different based on their gender? Do you think you are approached differently because of your gender? Is that a good thing? Here is how some see the issue.

We have yet to ask questions concerning this subject but it is certainly one that you will want to think about and should express yourself on. Can a living-will lead to state condoned euthanasia? See also this post from Dr. Al Mohler.
