Schiavo death was ‘murder,’ rabbi says

Thanks to Cheryl of www.chninternational.com and Nancy Valko, RN for pointing me to this article.

I know, as a Catholic, what the teachings of our Church are on food and fluid being basic necessity, and removal of them from a non-dying person is euthanasia by ommission. I know that I consider what happened in Florida to be judicial homicide, opening a Pandora's Box for all disabled persons. I did NOT know that the beliefs of the orthodox Jewish Faith is nearly identical to my own Catholic Faith. This article could not say it more clearly!

I also know this as a nurse since 1972, working with developmentally/cognitively and physically disabled for most of that time.

God bless.
