Are you serious right now? Here is some evidence, buddy. Your words, not mine:

OP started with this:



And you went straight to this as your first post:

This is a difference in philosophy as I have stated multiple times. If you get upset by differences in worldviews you should thicken your skin. There is a difference between ideas and the person, in...

There is always an element of disagreeing, discomfort, etc. that motivates people to providing an opposing view. If libertarians were not made uncomfortable by big government, they wouldn't push...

I still maintain that. You would think twice before making such a blanket statement in real life. You even thought twice when lasher got on your case. Again, in regards to callous, Hitleresque,...

Here you go again with the personal remarks. It reflects more on your intelligence than mine.

Did you, or did you not make a blanket, totalitarian statement at first, then backtracked and offered...

Previously, you said you wouldn't make a "should" comment on this issue, to another poster. Now you are. Again, I pose the question to you- who are you to determine what is the best option regarding...

First off, no need for derogatory remarks. Those are reserved for people with weak arguments who must resort to disparaging the other side. Maintain your dignity, please.

Your first statement-...

LOL you should read some of the arguments in the Middle East threads.

This is a statement made in this thread, even lasher contested it:

"If they are too mentally ill to get any enjoyment or satisfaction out of life, then termination is the best option."

You're mistaken, you did not read correctly. Politicians support certain movements because of their potential for political gain. If people press the issue (I never said politicians press the issue)...

I can understand the rationale behind some of the views here and believe me, there are cases such as vegetation that life should be decided by families...

Ah, I should have never mentioned being in a clinical MSW program. My, now everyone thinks I'm some sort of feminist.

How have politicians gotten involved in social issues? Advocacy. Lobbies....

I did explain that lobbies representing the interests of the mental health profession, businesses, and mental illness support groups all have a hand in changing the stigma and raising awareness. Same...

Interesting how context and time change our perceptions. Not all the people in Mecca and Medina believed Muhammad at face value, but to the common masses at that time his proclamations were indeed...

LOL. This guy.

I will read the thread in its entirety and tell you what I think.

Yes, the modern eugenics movement was born in America, and to an extent, Europe. It was a movement backed by research and scientific theories of the time. It was America which first put it into...

Responding to the bolded statements in order:

1. A mute person without arms cannot express himself. Does he deserve termination? It is not in our place to decide as we do not know the afflicted...

This is a sensitive topic. How do we, as the unafflicted, come to such a conclusion? Where does mercy killing cross over into eugenics and Nazi-like euthanasia programs? Assisted suicide should be an...

Question number one is both a mental health and social services question. In my experience, unmedicated schizophrenics, bipolars, and schizoaffectives are extremely hard to deal with. Eventually,...
