Medical Killing is Just Plain Wrong

MEDICAL KILLING IS WRONG!

Medical Killing is a clear violation of the Hippocratic Oath, it undermines the Doctor-Patient Relationship and it is just plain wrong. Don't let the Business of Medicine and the Politicians enable medical killing!
Below you will find two emails: the first is my respnse to the Care Not Killing administrator, Robert Colquhoun, and the second is the email that prompted my response.  It appears that the movement to enable medical killing is growing, and this is a very dangerous policy for many reasons.  Read the emails below to get a better understanding, and let me know if you have any comments, or questions.

Hello!

This is the complete title/author info on the MUST READ book to see how we are allowing the mainstream to slip into the Nazi mode ... AGAIN!
It is a compelling and nauseating read.

The Nazi Doctors: Medical Killing and the Psychology of Genocide

Robert Jay Lifton

Thanks for your help.

I will try to tweet/blog on this soon.

Interesting that I just put out a Tweet #quote yesterday about Killing ... as there is never any justification for intentional killing.  With rare exceptions ... perhaps someone like Hitler being the exception ... oddly enough.  Now ... with greedy and selfish people pushing the mainstream for profit over people ... we see this surge again with all sorts of excuses for the bad behavior.

Doctors should NEVER participate in KILLING for ANY REASON.
That said, there are some triage situations, and some allowing people to die in dignity ... which is clearly distinguishable from, and not to be confused with active killing. Abortion to save the mother of an unborn baby perhaps being the most extreme example. But, many can't make the distinction, as their minds are clouded with all sorts of nonsense.

That's why the Hippocratic Oath has stood the test of time ... despite the fact that many have messed with it over time including Hitler's people ... it always come back to the original, wise document +/- that serves as a foundation for our work.

It is time for Doctors to restore the Doctor Patient Relationship and this must go against the grain of the Business of Medicine ... which is clearly on a very bad path ... bad for Patients and Doctors.

Let me know if you need any other contact information.

Ciao for now,

Dear All,

The next few weeks are shaping up to be extremely busy on the euthanasia front as pro-euthanasia activists are gearing up for a new assault on the media, the courts, the medical profession and Parliament.

The pro-euthanasia lobby has begun its campaign in earnest with three articles in the British Medical Journal which aim at neutralising medical opposition to euthanasia.

Please respond and comment on the articles below on the BMJ website:

Raymond Tallis, chairman of Healthcare Professionals for Assisted Dying, argues that medical institutions should take a position of studied neutrality on assisted suicide: http://bit.ly/M6rUBX
Tess McPherson, tells the story of her mother who died from cancer last year: http://bit.ly/LG9VmX
The journal’s editorial by Fiona Godlee, ‘supports’ call for assisted suicide: http://bit.ly/OGdjz7 Vote NO on the opinion poll on this page (scroll down on the right).

Iona Heath, President of the RCGP, argues that assisted suicide would marginalize the most vulnerable: http://bit.ly/K4scan
