Posted on Blog by Wendy Francis · September 03, 2018 3:30 PM

Are all lives equally valuable?

Posted on Blog by Martyn Iles · August 28, 2018 2:49 PM

Euthanasia was defeated in the Federal Parliament recently against the odds. The numbers changed rapidly in a short period of time. That was once doctors and others had conversations with politicians and they simply changed their minds.

Euthanasia defeat in Senate calls for congratulations

Posted on Blog by Martyn Iles · August 15, 2018 7:11 PM

The Australian Christian Lobby has thanked all the senators who voted to preserve the dignity of life in tonight’s euthanasia vote. 

Martyn Iles, managing director of the ACL said, “It is great to hear that the senate has upheld the dignity of life for all Australians.

“We know from international experiences that euthanasia is a slippery slope which leads to cases like in Belgium recently where a nine-year-old with a brain tumour and an eleven-year-old with cystic fibrosis were euthanised. 

“The inherent value of every life must continue to be maintained.  Australia must not become the kind of society where some lives where considered worthier of life than others.” 

The Australian Christian Lobby is optimistic that this decision in favour of life will positively influence the state debates on this issue.

Queensland Labor’s push for euthanasia

Wendy Francis, the Australian Christian Lobby’s state director said; “It is concerning to see Labor’s legislative agenda focus so heavily on who gets to live and who must die.

Euthanasia should never be glorified

Posted on Blog by Martyn Iles · July 11, 2018 2:45 PM
