Thousands oppose Scottish euthanasia Bill
From Christian Today
The Catholic Church in Scotland has delivered the first batch of campaigning cards opposing Margo MacDonald’s euthanasia Bill to the doors of the Scottish Parliament.
Representing thousands of voters across Scotland who are opposed to the introduction of assisted suicide and euthanasia through the End of Life Assistance Bill, the Catholic Parliamentary Office, led by John Deighan, dispatched the first of many sacks of support for “Care Not Killing”.
John Deighan, the Parliamentary Officer for the Catholic Church in Scotland, said: “There are so many replies of support we are having to simply do shifts to shift the sacks, delivery not in a day but by the days.”
Mr Deighan continued: “Already we’ve been told by MSPs that, with over 14,000 replies, this is the largest public petition witnessed by our Parliament.”
