The media have more or less ignored the Catholic Bishops’ recent press release titled “Euthanasia dangerous threat to society”.
Right to Life has applauded the Catholic Bishops for their timely warning and has expressed disappointment that it has not received more publicity. “The Bishops are the spiritual leaders of more than 500,000 baptised Catholics in New Zealand who comprise fifteen per cent of the population of this country”, it says.
” The media, by choosing to ignore the Bishops’ warning are doing a great disservice to the community. The community has a right to receive warnings from our spiritual leaders of serious threats to the lives of the elderly, the sick and the terminally ill. Why is the media censoring and withholding important information from the Bishops for the community?”
