Felos Stunned by Hemlock Link

CALLER: Hi, Rush!

RUSH: Hi.

CALLER: I just wanted to know if you happened to catch George Felos on Fox & Friends this morning.

RUSH: Yes.

CALLER: What did you think?

RUSH: Well, there's a number of things that we have from Felos. One of the things -- what did you want to ask me about regarding Felos?

CALLER: Well, when they got to the last question I thought he looked, like, totally stunned. I think he thought that he did really, really good throughout the whole thing looking real calm.

RUSH: For people that don't know, what was the question?

CALLER: About the Hemlock Society?

RUSH: What was the question? I want you to tell me.

CALLER: Oh, I'm sorry. They had asked him -- they had heard a lot of talk on the radio -- or on talk radio, and they wanted to know if he really and truly belonged to the Hemlock Society.

RUSH: Yeah, and he said that he didn't.

CALLER: You didn't think that he looked stunned?

RUSH: Well, I think he looked stunned. I think he looked stunned, but he was not -- from everything I've been able to gather, he was not -- a member of the Hemlock Society.

CALLER: Oh, he wasn't?

RUSH: He was not. Here's what we know about the Hemlock Society and the Felos bunch, and this comes from Judi McLeod from the Toronto Free Press, it's a website, and we had the story yesterday. "Dr. Ronald Cranford, handpicked by Michael Schiavo to examine Terri and on whose say-so Terri was categorized in 'persistent vegetative state.' Cranford is the MD who officially ordered Terri’s feeding tube removed on March 18.... He was 1992’s featured speaker for the pro-euthanasia Hemlock Society, which was renamed The Choice in Dying Society," but not Felos. However, they're all connected because all these people are -- well, except for one, all of them are -- board members of the hospice in Pinellas Park. But Felos himself was not a member of the Hemlock Society. We have the sound bite. I think he was stunned not by the question about his membership but just the whole idea that it had been discovered that everybody involved in this hospice, that all the board members have and Felos does, too -- do have connections to people who are part of the Hemlock Society. It was a pro-euthanasia group. The question from Steve Doocy was, "Talk radio has been buzzing about your connection to the Hemlock Society. Could you just make that clear for us?"

FELOS: I don't know what they're... Uhhh, I don't know what they're talking about. I've -- I've -- I've spoken, uhhh, I've spoken before the Hemlock, uh, Society and -- but I'm -- I'm -- I'm not a member. Ummm, I don't serve, uh, in that organization, so I -- I -- don't know what they're talking about.

RUSH: I think he was a little stunned that the whole concept of the Hemlock Society was brought up here. I think this is something they thought was pretty much unknown because the mainstream press wasn't talking about it, the mainstream press is not talking about these connections.

Islam didn't legally starve and dehydrate a disabled woman inside U.S. borders. They are both a threat, but Scientology is a much quieter one.

Someone forgot to tell Greer that.

Scientology is a religion invented by a sci-fi writer so the Jehovah's Witnesses would have someone to laugh about also.

What do the Scientologists believe about life and death?

Thank you! Always looking for the next book.

May I suggest Kristine Smith's ("Code of Conduct" and "Rules of Conflict," etc., in the Jani Killian series), and Lois McMaster Bujold's Miles Vorkosigan series, as well as "Falling Free" an earlier work that deals with genetic manipulation of our children. (A common theme of all these books.)

My husband and I just re-read Orson Scott Card's "Ender's Game," and the series.

Scientology adopts a belief in reincarnation. Their notion of personhood is based on a distortion of Eric Fromm's actualized man in which a person strives to become all that he is able to become. For the scientologist only participation in their cult provides the ability to be actualized.
Non members are not simply expendable but are rightly to be harassed into extinction so that they may move into another body. As with the efforts of the Third Reich to produce a Master Race and Marx's perfect society, everyone with limited ability is to be dropped - exterminated.
The Scientology cult uses legal harassment as a tool of destruction. The Schaivo case was their finest hour. They will come after anyone who speaks against them with the full force of their power. "Dropping" them will be no simple task. They are thoroughly evil.

BTW...what the heck IS Scientology about, anyway. Anyone?

IIRC, null and void issued a public invitation to anyone who wants to know about Scientology to ping or FReepmail. So I'm pinging for you.

In this thread I've finally found the answer to one question that's bugged me, and that's who was financing, coordinating and motivating Schiavo and Felos, as well as Crandon.

To have an inalienable right to life and so forth means not only that it cannot be taken away. It means that you cannot willfully set it aside. You have no right to sell yourself into slavery and nor can you contract for your own death. To claim a personal right to end your personhood is intellectually absurd and by definition irrational.

Or it used to be.
