Vatican City (AFP) - A senior Vatican official has condemned as "wicked" the assisted suicide of Brittany Maynard, an American woman suffering from terminal brain cancer.

Maynard, 29, died in Portland, Oregon on Saturday having announced her intention to self-administer a cocktail of fatal drugs legally provided by her doctors in the US state, where she had moved with her husband after being given six months to live in January.

Anticipating a painful end to her life, she had announced her intention to end it in a video seen by millions of web users around the world that sparked a national debate in the United States over the right of the terminally ill to die with dignity at a time of their choosing.

Right-to-die laws such as those in place in Oregon are ferociously opposed by the Catholic Church, which maintains that suicide in any form is a sin.

how about reparations

In a move that could be coming way too late, could end up being way too little, but ultimately could be just enough to create the impression that an effort was made, the powers-that-be in St. Louis soon will try to figure out how to persuade the Rams from exercising their contractual right to put Missouri in the rear-view mirror.

According to Ken Belson of the New York Times, Missouri Governor Jay Nixon is expected to appoint a task force this week that will be directed to work with the Rams, politicians, and business leaders to conjure a plan for keeping the Rams in town.

Public funding will be the main issue, as it always seems to be.  As Belson points out, Missouri law currently requires a public referendum before any taxpayer money is devoted to a sports stadium.  Given the current national climate on that topic, any private money devoted to the effort to persuade voters to approve the use of public money ultimately would be better devoted to the budget for building the new facility.
