Euthanasia: A Personal Perspective
By Mark Davis Pickup
The onset of multiple sclerosis is sudden. I went dead from the waist down. I could not distinguish something hot from something cold.
‘Volunteering’ to Die
The life of a human being is something that should be treasured, valued, and respected. Yet we don’t see that in today’s society when it comes to a tiny preborn baby, a terminally sick individual, an elderly person, or anyone deemed unworthy or unwanted. More often than not, these people are seen as expendable or better off dead. We must change this twisted mindset.
Finding Peace
Peace begins at home. But what happens when we willfully destroy the home and the people in it? As a society, we are in trouble, for there is a war being waged upon us. And if we don’t arm ourselves properly, we will lose this war. But the reality is that we will lose so much more than that.

Holding fast to faith is looked down upon. When we allow morality to fade away and tolerance to take over, the face of God is obscured and His teachings lost. The result is a society also lost a society aching and hurting.
The Big Lies of Our Age Versus the Truth Found in Jesus Christ
By Mark Davis Pickup
My father’s generation knew the Holocaust of the Nazis. The holocaust of abortion and, soon, euthanasia and assisted suicide hangs over mine.
What Is a Suffering Man Worth?
By Arland K. Nichols
How much is man worth? So asked Pope Francis in a recent letter to the Pontifical Academy for Life on the occasion of the estimable academy’s annual meeting and celebration of its 20th anniversary.
Creating a Civilization of Love, Not Death
Unselfish love a true, Christlike love means always wanting what’s best for the other person and putting others before yourself. This love in no way includes the premature death of a living person. On this day of love and affection, let us not forget all that Christ has taught us. Let us not forget that He suffered and died for us. And let us allow our Christlike love to spill forth and cover our loved ones who are in pain rather than allowing our fears and misguided compassion to snuff out their lives.
