 In his article "Man comes out of ‘permanent vegetative state' after 15 years," Fr. Mark Hodges writes - "No human being is ever a 'vegetable,' but the phrase 'Permanent Vegetative State' certainly described 'Jack.' If someone falls into a 'Persistent Vegetative State' (PVS), being completely unaware and unresponsive for a whole year, their condition is diagnosed as permanent. "Colloquially speaking, Jack (a pseudonym) looked awake, but he 'wasn’t there.' Now, French doctors have shattered that medical conviction by reviving the 35-year-old man who spent 15 unresponsive years after a severe car accident. Doctors implanted a device to stimulate Jack’s vagus nerve, the longest of the involuntary nerves that runs from the base of the brain to the abdomen." This article disproves the notion that it's morally acceptable to kill persons in a PVS because they will never again be rational persons. If rationality is what defines our humanity, then why do we consider leftists to be human? Get the whole story: read the full article & get our free weekly newsletter: subscribe below! |
