NO, A christian filled with the right knowledge of the word of God shouldn't pray such prayers,the scriptures are explicit on this as you have rightly qouted.

~Lady~:



The Catholic Church's stance is not for a miracle to happen, although that would be greatly appreciated, but that ALL human life is sacred from the moment of conception to NATURAL death.
Natural death meaning a person's life is not taken and no one but God decides when the person takes his or her last breath. Medical services are supposed to help not hurt, stopping someone from living is hurting them and ending their life. Medical services are to help us survive, she was survivng on medical services and for 16 years they did the right thing, but now they played God by saying when her life should be ended.
When they switched off the machines they decided to end her life.

Euthanasia is wrong.

I am a christian too and believe in the sanctity of life,but in this case,she and her family wants it that way.She has been vegetative for 16 years,that could continue for another 20,30,40 years, what about the trauma on the family and loved ones,keeping her in that pathetic state could have some very adverse effects on them,spirtually and otherwise.

and what does this have to do with the Christianity
the question is what is the christian point of view on such matter,if the lady happen to be a member of your local assembly,what will be your stance?
The Catholic church waded in and supported she should remain on life support,perhaps hoping for a miracle that has not happened in 16 years.

ajiri avae:

how many times have you been driving down the streets of lagos, minding your own business when you come face to face with a group of "officers of the law". how many times have you, coming upon such a situation, felt the bile come up from your stomach because you know these people are only looking for people to extort money from. how many of those times have you just not been in the mood for that brand of nonsense. on days like that, anybody that stands in front of your car does it at his or her own peril.
my people, lets call a spade a spade. these police people went to police college. they have been taught how to identify criminals. (believe it or not, The Nigeria Police is one of the best trained in the world. argueably the best in Africa.) a woman driving alone in broad daylight can hardly be suspected of being a criminal. if she was a suspected criminal, believe me, they would not be trying to catch her in that manner,
if in other countries police personel are treated with some degree of respect, its because they don't cheapen themselves by turning into toll collectors. if thier pay is so bad then they should strike. i'm sure Nigerians will back them up. if they are being owed thier salaries, they should petition whoever is in charge both with the efcc and with the house of reps. or better still, the press. those people are always looking for a story to overflog to sell thier newspapers.
besides, has mike okiro not said on several occasions that the police should dismantle all checkpoint. does it not then amount to insubordination, and a disregard for his authority that they are still prowling the streets seeking whom to destroy? is mike okiro no longer in charge? if he has no control over them, then he has no business being the inspector general.
This is the tragedy of our situation,even though the driver was very wrong and criminal in her approach,considering the 9ja factor I'll be tempted to consider the same line of action if in the same situation.
I quite agree with you Ajiri avae.
Religion / Italian Woman In Right- To- Die Debate Dies by Poj1(m): 9:45am On Feb 10, 2009
ROME – A 38-year-old woman who ignited a fierce right-to-die debate that convulsed Italy and dragged in the Vatican died Monday just as lawmakers in Parliament rushed to pass a bill designed to keep her alive. Eluana Englaro had been in a vegetative state since she was in a car accident 17 years ago. She died Monday night at the Udine clinic where she had been for the past week, said family attorney Vittorio Angiolini.
"Yes, she has left us," the ANSA news agency quoted her father, Beppino Englaro, as saying. "But I don't want to say anything, I just want to be alone."
Englaro's doctors had said her condition was irreversible. Late last year, her father won a decade-long court battle to allow her feeding tube to be removed, saying that was her wish. In line with the high court ruling, medical workers on Friday began suspending her food and water.
But Italy's center-right government, backed by the Vatican, had pressed to keep her alive, racing against time to pass legislation prohibiting food and water from being suspended for patients who depend on them.
Senators who had just begun debating the bill observed a minute of silence Monday night when the news of her death was read out in the Senate chamber.
Government officials vowed to pass the legislation even though it was too late to save Englaro.
"I hope the Senate can proceed on the established calendar so that this sacrifice wasn't completely in vain," Health Minister Maurizio Sacconi told the Senate minutes after the death was announced.
Even if the bill had been passed in time, it wasn't clear that it would have kept Englaro alive. Alessandro Pace, constitutional law professor at Rome University, said the law couldn't have been applied to Englaro because of previous court rulings allowing her feeding tube to be removed.
Englaro's case bitterly divided Italy, with proponents on both sides of the right-to-die debate staging daily demonstrations outside the Udine clinic in northeast Italy and politicians hurling insults against each other. Pope Benedict XVI spoke out several times in the past week about the dignity of every human life.
"May the Lord welcome her and pardon those who brought her to this point," ANSA quoted Cardinal Javier Lozano Barragan, the Vatican's top health official, as saying. But he ruled out excommunicating those involved in suspending Englaro's food and water.
Italy does not allow euthanasia but patients have a right to refuse treatment. There is no law, however, that allows patients to give advance directions on what treatment they want if they become too incapacitated to state their wishes.
Vatican spokesman, the Rev. Federico Lombardi, said he hoped that Englaro's case would become a point of reference for reflection about how to accompany "the weakest in the necessary respect for the right to life."


Nairalanders,this issue has divided Italy into two fronts:the pro-life group(including the Catholic Church) who feels strongly against euthanasia and the Right- to-die group who feels she should be "allowed to die" since herself and her family want it that way.

Celebrities / Re: Etim Esin Sues JJ Okocha For Public Disgrace by Poj1(m): 8:23pm On Feb 06, 2009
Just some observations here:Okocha couldn't have been lying about; not being there when the searching was going on,about apologizing to Etim and his wife kissing Etim's wife regreting the incidence.There should be other people in the party who witnessed these happenings.Okocha with his status wouldn't lie sheepishlly like this even if he's as illiterate as some people think he is.
Etim is quite right with the integrity issue but considering the antecedent,going to court is a little too far(just my opinion) you cannot protect your integrity with a distorted story.
Toyin also goofed on this one,if Etim have a contract with him,will he have taken such action.You dont treat people like trash just because you're helping them.

A-town:

If you know nothing about the issue, stop making unnecessary generalizations. Good lord!!!
65 naira is the ceiling price for this month. PMS has been deregulated.
Marketers can choose to sell at any price as long as it does not exceed 65 bucks. THey can sell for 64.99 or 63 if they wish.
The PPRA will serve as a watchdog to determine the monthly ceiling price so marketers don't make unwarranted profits. Government is no longer subsidizing pms.

Guess what, if crude oil jumps in the summer, petro will jump too. You asked for it and you got it.
I smell trouble,this means the moment crude oil price rise by one cent in the global market petrol price in Nigeria will gallop,
