Re: Dr. Kevorkian passed away this morning
i would love to know where he ended up in the after life. IMO it should be heaven, to many people are kept alive that honestly are better off dead.

Re: Dr. Kevorkian passed away this morning
It's ok to put animals down but not humans, who are at least capable of making that decision for themselves. Doesn't make much sense to me.

Re: Dr. Kevorkian passed away this morning
Alot of people and really pets are kept alive for the living who don't want to deal with the pain of their death. Very sad really.

Re: Dr. Kevorkian passed away this morning
There's no such thing as an afterlife. The only time to judge him was his time while alive on Earth, he's dead and gone now, too late for judgment.

Although Kevorkian claimed to be an advocate for the terminally ill, by the estimation of the investigative reporters at the Detroit Free Press, at least 60% of the people who committed suicide with Kevorkian's help were not terminally ill. Furthermore, the reporters found that:
Here's a portion of the classic version of the Hippocratic Oath translated into English: -I will apply dietic measures for the benefit of the sick according to my ability and judgment; I will keep them from harm and injustice. -I will neither give a deadly drug to anybody if asked for it, nor will I make a suggestion to this effect. In purity and holiness I will guard my life and my art.

Re: Dr. Kevorkian passed away this morning
Fail to me for bring up heaven and hell, as though I care about either. It was just a whimsically thought on my part. Oh silly me.

Re: Dr. Kevorkian passed away this morning
It wasn't Kevorkian's job to make sure people were really terminally ill, etc. He made it possible for people who were in pain and wanted a way out that wasn't traumatic or painful. People that came to him came to him for a single reason. It was their choice.
Instead of soaking up their families hard earned money on something that most likely isn't curable they decide to pass on. I understand that decision. I don't want to spend my life in pain just sitting in a hospital bed all day. Not for me.

Re: Dr. Kevorkian passed away this morning
Legal drugs, assisted suicide. You are a loose cannon sir. A loose cannon. Let me say that one more time for dramatic effect. Loose cannon. Whats next not coming to a complete stop at a stop sign?

Re: Dr. Kevorkian passed away this morning
You never roll through a stop sign? C'mon now. I'm guessing you don't ever run with scissors either.

You're a long time veteran here, you should know the playbook by now. One man's whimsical thought is another's knock down/drag out brawl.
