The "slippery slope" argument against assisted suicide met the reality taking place in the Netherlands on the show tonight. Wesley J. Smith provided a wealth of important information for those who consider euthanasia a right for those suffering greatly with terminal illness. From his blog: "Dutch doctors now openly engage in infanticide, nearly 1,000 people are euthanized each year who have not asked to die, and the country’s Supreme Court has made it legally available to the depressed." This began as a right only for those suffering with terminal illnesses. Slippery slope? Nope. Reality.
