If a kids parents abort a brother or sister because they don’t want the bother and expense, why wouldn’t the kid consider euthanasia when the parents grow old and are just a bother and expense?
Karma?
Pretty much. Call it "poetic justice" or whatever. As a Christian, I don't believe in the far-eastern concept and definitions of "karma", but I certainly do believe in divine justice and the sovereign will of God.......which sometimes is expressed as "
Fine! If
THAT is what you
really want, then have ALL of it you can STAND until it makes you puke, and you are finally broken and realize that you need Me." (Romans 1:18-32) In that light, certainly the more westernized interpretation of Karma as "what goes around, comes around" has some social validity.
People who favor these kinds of radical shifts in the perceived value of life tend to dismiss "slippery slope" arguments as paranoid.......while actually pushing us further down the slippery slope. There are none so blind as those who are willfully so, and you have to be blind to not see the slippery slope arguments.
Wilful blindness is exactly what Romans 1:18-32 is all about.
