culture of death

Rfd-redundant:

  1. (theology, Catholicism) According to Pope John Paul II and Pope Benedict XVI, an opposite state to the "culture of life".
  2. (politics) In contemporary political discourse, a culture that is deemed to be inconsistent with the concept of a "culture of life", such as cultures that support abortion, euthanasia, degradation, humiliation, human cloning, self-absorption, apathy, poverty and capital punishment. Some commentators would add to that list homosexuality, contraception and other phenomena perceived to attack marriage and the family.

Redundant to each other and poorly worded as they both rely on a link to culture of life that doesn't exist. The second definition reads like an excerpt from an essay. Basically we need one sens that means 'opposite to the culture of life' but without relying on the wording 'culture of life' because we don't have a definition for that. While we're at it the fourth definition looks dubious to me, but that's purely instinct, I haven't checked. Mglovesfun (talk) 12:39, 1 November 2013 (UTC)Reply
