The whole of the christard church

A poll conducted by Populus in April 2019 found that, of 5,000 UK respondents, 84% supported assisted dying for the mentally competent terminally ill provided that safeguards were put in place. This is up from 82% found in a similar poll conducted in 2015.

The figure defies consistent opposition to reform from religtard institutions.

The crutch of England recently reaffirmed its opposition to assisted dying after the Royal College of Physicians dropped its opposition to reform and adopted a neutral stance on the issue.

The bishop of Carlisle James Newcome said: "The crutch of England's position remains to affirm the intrinsic value of every human life, and express its support for the current law on assisted suicide." So basically, if you are in pain and suffering, fuck you.

Newcome has sat in the House of Lords as one of the 26 anglican bishops entitled to do so since 2013.

The cat licker church opposes assisted dying and has bankrolled campaigns against it internationally. The Muslim Council of Britain has opposed efforts at legalisation. The Board of Deputies of British Jews aims to ensure "mainstream medical practice is not in conflict with Jewish ethics" on assisted dying.

A broad coalition of faith leaders opposed a bill proposing the legalisation of assisted dying in 2014. A similar bill was overwhelmingly rejected by MPs the following year.

A recent investigation by openDemocracy has also revealed that a US-based christard right group, the Alliance Defending Freedom, is supporting anti-assisted dying campaigns as it dramatically increases its spending in the UK.

The poll shows that a significant proportion of British people are prepared to support assisted dying, provided appropriate safeguards are in place. It is vital that dogmatic religtard institutions are not given a prominent place in this debate and allowed to frustrate this popular reform.

Reasonable concerns over assisted dying should be heard and addressed. But religtard institutions must not be allowed to undermine the individual autonomy of those who do not share their particular theological interpretation on this issue.

Many ordinary people from most faith groups appear out of step with religtard leaders. This is particularly true of christards, 82% of whom would be prepared to support reform.

The poll also found that 52% of people would feel more positively towards their MP if they supported assisted dying, compared to only 6% who would feel more negatively.

87% of the good people of Scotland backed the change. Recently, 9 MSPs from across the political divide called for the legalisation of assisted dying in Scotland.

Sarah Wootton, the chief executive of campaign group Dignity in Dying, said: "Voters for every political party, in every region of Britain and across all age groups want to bring our laws into line with other countries like Canada, the USA and Australia."

The news comes as the governor of the US state of New Jersey prepares to sign a bill legalising assisted suicide which passed its legislature last week.

christards, you are in a minority when it comes to assisted dying so shut the fuck up and let individuals die in the way they want, not the way you narrow minded fuckwits want us to.

Do I sound like a fuckin' people person?
