On this episode of What It Means to Be Human, Discovery Institute senior fellow in human rights and bioethics Wesley J. Smith takes a look at what's behind the radical euthanasia movement. According to Smith, "Support for euthanasia can be seen as merely a symptom of the deeper illness of nihilism, a social cancer that has been gnawing steadily away at us for more than a century." How do we stem this terrible tide? By "embracing human exceptionalism and its corollary that each and every one of us matters -- no matter what." Listen in and hear the charge for true compassion in our society.
