Singer pointed to the obvious benefits to hospitals of the invention of “brain death” to free up beds. But more chillingly, it is the advantage for transplant patients from "brain death" that Singer points to as an improvement.

This is repulsive!

Registering as a DemocRAT counts as brain dead.

I don't know how much longer I can stay in this state. I have to find the dividing line between "I'm still trying to fight the good fight" .... and "I give up -- I can't, in good conscience, remain here any longer."

[The people driving the ethics community further in its current utilitarian direction, Drake said, “would rather have more organs available for ‘worthy’ people than ‘waste resources’ on people with severe brain injury that many professionals equate privately with those they've labelled ‘brain-dead.’”]



That is the truth.

It goes side by side with those who are trying to make it easier to force the doctors to stop feeding great aunt Mabel so she can die before the last of her estate goes to the nursing home.

In his books, Singer has said that children less than one month old have no human consciousness and do not have the same rights as others.

"Killing a defective infant is not morally equivalent to killing a person," he wrote in one book. "Sometimes it is not wrong at all."

"Ideas have consequences," and we are witnessing the unfolding and ongoing consequences (evil) resulting from enlightenment ideas that were collectively systematized into secular humanism (socialism and its variants).
"God is dead"="godless man is the measure of all things." The sub-creator has usurped the Creator's authority.

This is the elephant in the room, something more obvious by the day as we open our eyes. Declare some poor young accident victim brain dead, and open up the used parts auction. Parents probably will buy the expert almighty doctor analysis and go along with it thinking they are saving the victim just a little bit by allowing the organs to continue on. Meanwhile the poor victim may have been able to recover, but who would know.

Singer is the present tense of Sanger.

The momentum is on the side of the death forces...Frist is being pressured to being the fetal stem cell legislation back to a vote this summer...supposedly there are 60 votes to override the president's expected veto.

The forces of evil are pushing this country to the precipice. God help us all.
