Efforts on the introduction of euthanasia in Ukraine

On 19 April 2012, an ideological press conference was held which tendentiously blamed the Ukrainian government for forcing the patients in Ukraine to suffer. The aim of this demagoguery is to manipulate the public opinion into the acceptance of euthanasia. A psychological manoeuvre to increase the credibility shall be morphine in the form of pills, which will thus be freely available even to drug addicts. This “charity” is to be financed by the multimillionaire Mr Soros and his International Renaissance Foundation, which is working on all fronts towards reduction of humanity, i.e. genocide.
The recording of the press conference ideologically reports that the effect of morphine lasts only 4 hours and then allegedly the person suffering from cancer goes through hell. It is these ideologues of death who make a real hell and cause torture. The suffering of a person who has cancer is no hell but a preparation for a happy eternity, and the more so if one is a Christian and unites one’s suffering to the suffering of Christ. This suffering also brings a blessing upon the whole family who bear the suffering with their dearly loved one. It is no psychological torture as these demagogues falsely present it with the deliberate purpose of introducing euthanasia. Euthanasia, in essence, is the killing of a human being, or suicide, and one painlessly goes to eternal torture, to hell, where there is no deliverance. These are the devil’s servants disguising themselves as angels of light and deceiving people so as to make their lives a hell on earth and lead them to hell after death.
As for euthanasia, we have an example from the Netherlands where it may be legally performed not only on terminally ill people but practically on every person, and so it may be easily misused for the removal of political and other personalities.
Ukraine was forced into adopting PACE Resolution 1763, wherein medical care includes the right to euthanasia. The mass media now manipulate the citizens of Ukraine to accept this murderous structure which will eventually perpetrate the genocide of Ukraine.
The demagogic report of the press conference boycotts self-sacrificing care for one’s relatives and misleads the Ukrainians: “… the close family is destined to go through a severe moral trial and psychological suffering the intensity of which may be compared to that of tortures…”. The truth is that family members stay with the sick person whether at home or in hospital. In the family circle the sick one is surrounded with care, compassion and Christian love! The suffering ennobles the whole family. To kill a person to allegedly relieve him from suffering is a crime.
The Byzantine Catholic Patriarchate protests against Resolution 1763 and its implementation in Ukraine. Those who are responsible for it should be exposed and punished as criminals against humanity.
