The Second International Symposium on Euthanasia and Assisted Suicide will begin in about 2 hours. Among the speakers will be Rita Marker, Bobby Schindler (Terri Schiavo’s brother), and Diane Coleman, founder of the disability rights/anti assisted suicide group Not Dead Yet.
I don’t speak until this evening, so I think I will try to “live blog” over at Secondhand Smoke— newly made one of the First Things family of blogs—to report what some of the very fine lineup of speakers have to say. For those interested, here is the link .
Thank you.
