Speaking in Dublin, euthanasia campaigner Dr. Philip Nitschke encouraged his audience to confirm their plans to commit suicide before they become too infirm. “Don’t wait until it’s too late, plan ahead and put in place an end-of-life strategy."
A major focus of his appearance was to help overturn Ireland’s blasphemy laws that make it “almost impossible” to talk about assisted suicide for fear of opposition from religious groups. “As an atheist I am often asked to debate the ethical issues involved in providing a person with information that will allow them to end their life peacefully and reliably at a time of their choosing. I am constantly up against this idea that somehow life belongs to God. I disagree strongly with that assertion.” LifeSiteNews
