Blacks and Death....
BLACKS & DEATH
A new study shows that blacks are not as likely as whites to want to walk into the light. Reuters: Blacks more likely to want end-of-life intervention. For such a Christian country, with so many of us believing in this perfect Heaven, we are really reluctant to leave this very imperfect earth. "While more than half of black individuals surveyed said they would want life support if they had a chronic condition and were brain dead, just 11 percent of whites would want this intervention. Nearly three quarters of blacks said they would want life-sustaining care if they were terminally ill and had senile dementia, compared with 22.2 percent of whites." Sorry, I'm with the minority on this. Life is for living, not just being here.
