text: Bill it sounds like you have gone through a bit of pain in your life and know what it is. You can thank God that your pain was relieved. Try to imagine that pain everyday of your life. If you want to play the Christian card why do Catholics and now allow people that have committed suicide because of depression going to heaven.? As you can see Christianity is in the eyes and interpretations of the individual. So using that as a basis for a argument is not valid. It is just your opinion versus the statistics and lives of people going through this torture. In 100 years the most effective means of torture is going to be not allowing people to die. Torture is what it is and yet you condone it as a Christian because you have not witnessed it. If you tell me you have watched someone you love beg you to help them kill themselves because they are quadriplegic then you might have some more validity. Is this the case?
