I'd start by asking them which one knew yiddish.

I'd have thought anyone of the Jewish faith, would have seen the moral danger in suggesting people of one faith are of less value than those of another, the Nazis had a word for it of course.

Why can't the (Catholic) clergy understand the notion of assisted dying? Are they stupid, or are they inventing a problem so they can "solve" it and thus create the illusion of usefulness in society?

This is one of the titles of an article written by a Catholic priest about the new assisted suicide bill in the UK.

England’s New Slaughter of the Innocents

There is much that might make us gloomy at the moment, not least the awful vote in the British House of Commons on Friday allowing the euthanizing of those deemed not worthy of life. Although this crime against the Fifth Commandment has been allowed for years in other formerly Christian countries, such as Canada or Holland, and has had terrible consequences, all of which were said to not to be possible when the laws were introduced, the fact that Britain still has the external vestiges of being a Christian country make this moment worthy of more than gloom; it is now a different country, with post-Christian laws and government.

If the King signs this legislation, which he will, as with the legalization of abortion in 1967, the process begun by Henry VIII, declaring himself as the Supreme Head of the Church of England, will have reached its final, ugly, and fetid dissolution.

We could add now, in the 21st century, a third thing Christians never do: kill, or allow the killing, of the old, the sick, and the vulnerable. We must indeed become “strange people,” and in being strange, we will attract many to the light.

In another time of darkness, when the Nazi State not only sanctioned the murder of those deemed “unworthy of life,” and called it an act of mercy, but actively killed nearly a quarter of a million people with their euthanasia program, there were those in the Church who did speak out, who were unafraid, who were not mice, but men.

So even the king is not a real Christian but is participating in Nazi programs.

Another Catholic website covers what bishops say

Catholic bishops of England and Wales call for prayers after Parliament’s first approval of assisted suicide bill

Bishop Sherrington also stated that the bishops are opposed to the bill as a matter of principle — the Church teaches that assisted suicide and euthanasia are grave evils — and pointed out that there are certain clauses in the bill’s text that are especially alarming.

The best approach to supporting those who are suffering and terminally ill is through enhancing palliative care and its accessibility, Bishop Sherrington said. He reiterated the bishops’ message that true compassion is essential to accompanying those who are suffering or nearing the end of life.

The thing is that assisted suicide has existed in UK hospitals for many years: when someone is gravely ill, like after a hard stroke, they starve and dehydrate them to death, so this bill would just make it more humane and less painful.

The Jewish liver is the broiled one.
