This is a small, cross-sectional, study…and…the results suggest that those who desire to die…
- …are more demoralized
- …have less hope
- …are NOT bothered any more by pain than those we do not desire to die
What can we conclude from this small, cross-sectional, study? Maybe:
- In order to help those who want to die…we can help them recognize reasons for hope in their life (or even the objective existence of that theological virtue Hope!)
- Continue to make it known that it is NOT pain that leads to the desire for death! This is a lie of the Culture of Death that is pushing State-Sanctioned Suicide right now in the NY State Legislature. If you have not done so already please contact your NY State Senator! Their legislative session ends next week. Now is the time!
