We live in a culture of death. Death is our preferred solution to any problem, rather than addressing the structures we have that prevent life from flourishing. Have a baby you don’t want to take care of? Kill it via abortion. Have an elderly parent who it’s inconvenient to help? Put them in a home so they can die out of sight and mind. Have horrifying levels of health and mental issues? Give drugs to deal with the symptoms rather than cut out the roots. A culture of death will only come to one end, because it ipso facto rejects life.
