A Catholic society at one of Australia s top universities has come under fire after asking students whether disabled people are a burden on society.
The Sydney University Catholic Society posed the question on Monday during their Life Week event, described as a week to celebrate the dignity and beauty of all human life , and provided yes and no buckets for students to place their answer. Today we posed two questions: Is it worth enduring suffering? and Are disabled people a burden on society? Students had a chance to engage with the question by placing a stick in a yes or no bucket, the Catholic Society posted on Facebook.
