My Canon Law friend Edward Peters writes:
Proposal: Impose excommunication for euthanasia
For some months I have been researching and writing an article on euthanasia in canon law. I hoped against hope that it might remain an academic exercise, but (to judge from, say, this report on the practice of euthanasia in Belgium) the speed with which the Western, specifically Christian, protection of innocent life is collapsing suggests that one of my projected canonical recommendations deserves an earlier hearing than appearance in a peer-reviewed journal can afford.
Simply put, I recommend that euthanasia be made an excommunicable offense under the 1983 Code of Canon Law.

Dr. Ed Peters, my friend and Canon Lawyer writes: “One of the reasons we have rules is to help us guide our decision-making when circumstances make it difficult to think clearly. The horrific murder of the Sueppel family by their husband-father Steven, who then finally succeeded in killing himself, is nothing if not a difficult circumstance. My read, in any case, of 1983 CIC 1184.1.3, in light of the gruesome facts of this case, leads me to conclude that Steven Sueppel should be denied ecclesiastical funeral rites.” Read more it at: http://www.canonlaw.info/2008/03/steven-sueppel-should-not-be-granted.html
