STOP ASSISTED SUICIDE IN CALIFORNIA
Stop Assisted Suicide in CA before it’s too late! Earlier this year, through a Special Session, the CA legislature passed assisted suicide, allowing doctors to prescribe overdose medication to terminally ill patients. Join a coalition of physi-cians, nurses, disability-rights organizations, and people of all faiths to stand for the lives of our elderly and dying and oppose assisted suicide! On the weekends of December 12/13, and 19/20 petitions will be available for signature outside of Masses. Signers must be registered to vote in California and can only sign once.
Why Oppose Assisted Suicide? • Sends the Wrong Message: Legalizing sui-
cide for the terminally ill, while discouraging it for the rest of the population, teaches that the lives of the ill and disabled do not matter to our society.
• Will Worsen Patient Care: Patients in other states, like Barbara Wagner in Oregon, are being denied treatment prescribed by their doctors, and instead offered drugs for assist-ed suicide.
• Will Increase Non-Terminal Suicide Rates: Suicides skyrocket when assisted suicide is legalized. Oregon's suicide rate for non-terminal people increased 49% after assisted suicide became legal.
DETENGA EL SUICIDIO ASISTIDO EN CALIFORNIA
¡Detenga el suicidio asistido en California antes de que sea demasiado tarde! Este año, a través de una Sesión Especial, la legislatura de CA aprobó el suicidio asistido permitiendo que médicos prescriban sobredosis de medicamento a pacientes con enfermedades terminales. Hágase socio de una coalición de médicos, enfermeras, organizaciones para derechos de discapacitados, y personas de todas las religiones para apoyar la las vidas de nuestros ancianos y moribundos y ¡Opóngase al suicidio asistido! Los Fines de semana en Diciembre 12/13 y 19/20, habrá peticiones disponibles para firmar en el vestíbulo de la Iglesia. Quienes firmen deben estar registrados para votar y solo se puede firmar una vez. Se necesitan Voluntarios.
¿Porque Oponerse al Suicidio Asistido? ► Manda el Mensaje Equivocado: Legalizar el
suicidio para personas con enfermedades terminales, mientras disuadimos al resto de la población, enseña que las vidas de los enfermos y discapacitados no importan en nuestra sociedad.
► Empeorara el Cuidado del Paciente: A pacientes en otros estados, como Barbara Wagner en Oregón, se les está negando tratamiento recetado por sus médicos, y en su lugar se les está ofreciendo medicinas para asistir el suicidio.
► Aumentará el Índice de Suicidios sin enfermedades terminales: Los suicidios suben cuando el suicidio asistido es legalizado. El índice de suicidios de Oregón para personas sin enfermedades terminales incremento un 49% después de que el suicidio asistido se legalizo.

Oh, by gosh, by golly. It's time for mistletoe and HOLLY! “The Christmas Holly”
The bright green leaves and red berries, well into the cold season, make holly right for Christmas. Its symbolism, however, is much deeper. For early Christians it was not only reminiscent of the burning bush seen by Moses, but prophetic as well; In the face of Christmas sentimentality, it foretells, with its prickly points and drops of blood-like berries, Christ’s crown of thorns. According to ancient legend, its berries were once yellow, but were stained permanently by Christ’s blood, since it was used to fashion the Savior’s crown of thorns. (Maybe this is the reason for the superstition that holly, if brought into the house before Christmas Eve, would provoke family fights.)
The symbolic roots of holly go deeper still, into the subsoil of the Roman culture. The Romans would send holly to friends in a gesture of friendliness and goodwill during the mid-winter feasts. Later Northern Europeans hung it on doors as a symbol of shelter for the wood spirits.
