    It is true that some members of the public view euthanasia as unfair, cruel and insensitive. They make a clear proposition that human life is good, that it is worth living, that it deserves respect and protection, that every human being has an equal worth and dignity, which every human being has a right to live.

First, I do not believe that religion should play a huge role in the decision to legalize assisted suicide. In America, we have the right to freedom of religion, so that same freedom…

    Melvin Morse, M.D author of “Closer to the Light” gives us a profounder understanding about near-death experience (NDE) by using personal stories from patients and research other doctors have unveiled. Throughout the book, Dr. Morse gives short stories of different patients who have undergone a NDE or something similar to it. He also describes how our society differs from the society hundred years ago in dealing with NDE patients.
