“The American Public Health Association has joined the Oregon Department of Human Services in redefining the act of a terminally ill person taking drugs to kill himself,” The U.S. Baptist Press reported on 2 Jan 07. “Terms such as ‘suicide’ or ‘physician-assisted suicide’ should be rejected in .favour of such phrases as ‘aid in dying’ or ‘patient-directed dying,’ the APHA decided in a resolution announced Dec. 20.”

IMAGE News in 2007 reported a speech by Professor John Wyatt:

“The manipulation of language often precedes and accompanies the transgression of moral boundaries . . . In the Nazi era, the killing of handicapped children was organised by the Committee for the Scientific Approach to Severe Illness due to Heredity and Constitution. The organisation that took children to the gas chambers was the Charitable Transport Company for the Sick.

“Recently, the UK Voluntary Euthanasia Society changed its name to Dignity in Dying

Not everyone is fooled.”
