Ep 52. Judaism Teaches That Life Is The Holiest Thing In The World

In this episode, we share beautiful life affirming messages from two righteous rabbis who provide Torah based arguments against the utilitarian approach to medicine taken by the UK National Health Service. They are quoted in a story about NHS providers' cost cutting measures in the time of Covid, forcing parents to withdraw life saving medical care from their children, as well as increased pressure to withdraw life saving medical care from their elderly parents.  Rabbi Moshe Avraham Halperin from the Science and Technology Torah Law Institute says, "Life is holy, the holiest thing in the world, because it is through life that we serve God. Therefore, no person can be the master over life; not his own and certainly not someone else's. Life belongs to God and He is the only one who decides over when it begins and when it ends." Rabbi Yosef Berger, rabbi of King David's Tomb on Mount Zion says,  "The purpose of life is to praise God. Anything that lessens life, reduces God's praises and delays the Redemption. Sacrificing the children and elderly in the name of survival is a trait of the godless and doing so certainly delays the Redemption. Regrettably, the majority of Jews remains uninformed of the life affirming principles upon which Judaism is based, believing that abortion and euthanasia are human rights. We reference a Pew poll showing this in slide #88,  83% Of Jews Believe That Abortion Should Be Legal In All Or Most Cases, and challenge this majority to look beyond secular ideology to their God given conscience in slide #66 The Questions We Must Ask Ourselves.
