As part of the disastrous influence of Justin Trudeau's government, euthanasia continues its metastasis through the body politic of Canada. After its initial legalization in 2016, MAiD - euphemistically, medical assistance in dying - was expanded, removing the criterion of foreseeable death. All you needed is an 'irremediable' medical condition, like, say, acne. Included also was euthanasia for 'mental illness'. All of this opens a door so wide that anyone can walk into the abyss of death, all with the government's help, if not coercion, for any reason whatsoever.

Apologetics is the art of defending religious doctrines through systematic argumentation and discourse, making reference to both faith and reason as appropriate, in light of Saint Peter’s admonition to ‘Always be prepared to make a defense to any one who calls you to account for the hope that is in you, yet do it with gentleness and reverence’ (1 Peter 3:15).
