Title: Personhood Theory
Topic: Personhood Theory
Discussed by Wesley J. Smith
with Discovery Institute (www.discovery.org)
For more log onto www.WesleyJSmith.com The Discovery Institute's Wesley Smith maintains that the US was founded on the premise of the great value of human life and that all human life, regardless of mental or physical capacity, is important. In bioethics and higher education circles, the idea known as personhood theory is taking hold. Personhood theory reduces the value of life to some determined level of cognitive capacity. Most hospitals now have "futile care committees" which determines who will continue to receive care. In Texas, if the hospital says your loved one will no longer receive care, you have 10 days to find another hospital to take your loved one - or they will die!
