Paul Wolpe of the Center for Bioethics at the University of Pennsylvania [said,] “There is a certain distancing that history gives us from certain kinds of artifacts. . . . If you had called me and said these are books from Nazi Germany, I would have a very different response.”

It has often been noted that the origins of the Holocaust were eugenics, which had scientific pretensions, and medical experimentation. The Holocaust was preceded by the Nazi decision to do away with "useless eaters."

It is typical that a "bioethics" expert is unable to see these connections. Bioethics is a fraudulent field in which people get fraudulent degrees in something called "ethics" so they can work in the medical industry and shield the people who pay their salaries from charges of criminal conduct and gross immorality.

Thus, if you are a large hospital liable to be sued by tort lawyers, you have a biotheticist on your payroll who will testify that everything you do is right and good, including killing off any useless eaters who happen to be lying around the hospital.

I have an unusual book at home I think called "The Uses Of Evil". It is written by a doctor and summarizes the research done on starvation by Jewish doctors in the Warsaw Ghetto. Essentially, the doctors decided that they should catalog the effects of starvation on humans. The whole book is a hellish account because in addition to the starving people, the doctors and hospital existed only at the whims of the Nazis. So the question is whether this research was moral?
