Notes
"Church of England and Roman Catholic bishops have joined forces to urge Parliament not to change the law on euthanasia, arguing that allowing assisted suicide would undermine the protection of vulnerable people. In a joint submission to the House of Lords Select Committee on the Assisted Dying for the Terminally Ill Bill, the Church of England House of Bishops and the Roman Catholic Bishops' Conference of England and Wales describe the Bill as `misguided' and `unnecessary' and warned it would damage the relationship between doctors and patients."

Notes
"[By] Richard M. Gula, S.S."
Includes bibliographical references.
"[T]he debate about euthanasia and physician-assisted suicide is more a debate about competing and conflicting moral visions and values than anything else. This book tries to identify the main features of the visions and values shaping the debate, especially those upheld by the Catholic moral tradition.. .... The final chapter tries to 'walk the talk', as it were, by sketching a pastoral response to the euthanasia movement. It will identify the virtues, personal and corporate, which witness to the kind of moral and spiritual life we need to live if our arguments against euthanasia are to be credible". -- Intro.
