25. The Problem With Legalising Assisted Suicide

What is the solution to suffering that can’t be eased? In this episode of Into the Truth, Archbishop Anthony Fisher OP shares his personal experience of paralysis and recovery, exploring what it means to face suffering with hope and what happens when society tries to eliminate suffering by eliminating the sufferer.

Having witnessed the legalisation of assisted suicide in Australia, Archbishop Fisher shares the dangers of safeguards that quietly disappear, what suffering can teach us, and how legalising euthanasia changes medicine, the law, and the way we see each other. Watch for a thought-provoking discussion on an issue all Catholics need to know about.
