Secondly Christians could lobby parliament. This would be a good idea to stop euthanasia and would be a good visual aid towards the government. Once the parliament receives different Christian’s views of euthanasia, they should then understand a certain degree of remorse for allowing euthanasia to take place in the first place. Having various letters from Christians to parliament would definitely help stop euthanasia, and could even allow parliament to see how they have gone wrong.
Another way Christians may put their beliefs into action is by using the powerful media. The media itself consists of TV, radio, and newspaper. Christians can write up articles referring to euthanasia and how it can affect someone’s life. By doing this and people reading it from the paper, and even seeing it on TV, it could change a whole societies view of euthanasia. Even the idea of Christians asking for a famous person, such as Mel Gibson to appear on TV, for a short period to talk on how euthanasia is wrong, again can change people’s views on euthanasia and is a very powerful idea for Christians to do.
Fourthly Christians can go to prayer meetings. This is more of a spiritually idea that can help in many ways. People can go to feast or Vigils, where they talk on the issue and pray for it to end. They do this because it is what they believe in, and they have high hopes for prayer to take control.
In reference to media, the Internet can also be a good source to use. Christians may design web sites talking on euthanasia, how effective it is on a person’s life, and how it is a sin. Also Christians may send email to people across the net for their support. Short emails with the title “NO TO EUTHANASIA” can be a effective title and would appeal to many people. Especially the title, which is very eye catching, and immediately attract people. Even Christians can come up with the idea to have web site polls, where surfers are capable of voting with euthanasia is acceptable, or not.
Christians may also do the obvious thing and protest. By protesting, they can stick posters in certain areas, sell shirts saying “EUTHANASIA IS WRONG”, and form a small committee. By doing this, people would then see how serious Christians take the issue and decide to help ban euthanasia for life. Christians can take banners and march in local places for attraction which is a smart technique were people would then ask questions on what is euthanasia, and what is it doing to the society.
A major response to euthanasia from Christians is a hospice. A hospice is like a home were terminally ill people are looked after. In other words their pain is controlled. Hospices are definitely a good alternative to euthanasia. They don’t charge patients, so it is a better way to live life peacefully knowing you are going to die. Instead of performing euthanasia hospices help provide a peace of mind. Hospices help provide an environment.
In conclusion to how Christians may put their beliefs about euthanasia into action, I think the best way is to definitely have hospices worldwide. This is a better alternative, and is a place were friendship is always operating, between patients and staff. Hospices should be use because it’s a peaceful environment, and is also a Christian establishment.
