well i decided to write about two things that have been on the news quite a bit, The Schiavo Case and the Minnesota school shooting......
I've been watching the news lately and there are 2 things that have really made me think:
1) The Schiavo Case.........where her husband wants his wife to die, so he can go find another woman and therefore doesnt have to look after his wife, Terri. I was reading more about it on the WGAL channel website and here is something that her parents lawyer said,
"A lawyer for Schiavo's parents told a federal judge that forcing Schiavo to die by starvation and dehydration would be "a mortal sin" under her Roman Catholic beliefs." Also here is what a woman said that was standing outside of the hospice,
"A woman outside Schiavo's Florida hospice called the judge’s decision "terrible." In the woman's words, "They're going to talk and talk and she's going to die."
I've asked myself a question, "if I were her and in that condition, would i want to be kept alive?" They already took out her feeding tube and on the verge of dying any day, they said that she can live about a week to 2 weeks without food and water and the feeding tube was the only thing that was keeping her alive. Her family is trying to get the feeding tube reinserted.
If I were her, I wouldnt want to be kept alive, to be honest. I mean she cant even move alot, she cant talk, and she cant even feed herself.
If you were her what would you want done, would you want to be kept alive or have the tube removed and die from starvation and dehydration??
And the 2nd thing was the school shooting in Minnesota......I've also thought about the shooting that went on in Minnesota. Why would a teenager go to school and shot 5 of his classmates, his grandfather, a security guard, a teacher, and then take his own life?? He also injured about 14 other people and he was laughing while he was shooting them. The part that hit me was when he asked a boy if he believed in God and then shot him. If you were asked that question, "if you believed in God" and had a gun pointed at your head, what would you say?? would you say no just so that you can stay alive or would you say yes and then die cause that student hated Christians??? I would say yes and i wouldnt be afraid cuz its true....what would you say???
well everyone have a wonderful night and have a great day tomorrow
