Bernie, I said the principle WAS sound. I did not say I approved of vaccinations as they are today, and particularly do I oppose compulsion.. One un-vaccinated cannot give the desease to the vaccinateds, so its all about compulsion not protection.. and anyway, lets not forget the mark of the beast.. It could come by forced injection.. but I doubt this given the Bible indicates we have a choice, but this choice could apply to whether we use it , for example to buy food....in which case we are Dead souls. There is also a good case against blood transfusions, yet look how people are ostracised for refusing it to their children. Likewise organ transplants.. A good case against..... see story appended. Philip. appendix FEATURE STORY OF THE CURRENT ISSUE. CATHOLIC July, 1998 page 9. Organ Transplants and Morality This article was put together by Father Cornelis Byman of St Therese's Church Chico. Calf USA and appeared in his newsletter for June 1998 Fr. Byman's newsletters always contain some thought provoking work and what follows is no exception Many are concerned about the question of organ donation and transplants. and there are certainly some deep moral issues involved many touched upon here. We are reminded of a bumper sticker often seen in Australia which reads: 'Don't take your organs to Heaven. Heaven knows we need them here! Provision is also made to have a notice of intention to donate organs included with a driver's licence. Whatever are our thoughts on this practice. We would he well advised to discuss the matter with a competent priest before any serious decisions are made. In many hospitals a new practice has become commonplace: the removal of organs from people who are believed to be dead, to trans-plant them into living bodies of others, to replace an organ which is in bad condition. This can only be done if the organ, taken from the donor; is itself still living. This raises a major question> How can an organ, taken away from a corpse still be able to function in another body, even if the donor died just before the operation? It is of the greatest importance to know this. Therefore, the advocates of this practice have invented a new expression to declare that one is dead, and so to permit the surgeon to proceed with the proposed surgical procedures. This new expression is brain death. Death begins generally with the ceasing of the brain functions, even before the heart has ceased completely to beat and the functions die slowly one after the other. When one is brain-dead one seems to be dead but is not yet dead entirely. To cut then the body open to take the needed organs(s) away, even if the victim had to die, is murder, and this is deliberately overlooked by the surgeon who needs the organs. This becomes evident by what happened to Mr. John Kerkhoffs in Holland, who had been operated on for a brain tumor and apparently died. He was declared to be brain-dead. Family and physicians were standing around the bed and discussing what to do and were even about to make him a donor of his useful organs. Rut then he came out of his coma and was alive again, very much 'brain-alive'. Since he left the hospital , he has not stopped waning people against the doctors who would take the organs, and the criminality which is hidden in this practice. When asked whether he would become a donor he answers with the words: "I prefer to die in peace" When I was in Austria with a group of other priests, near to the border of Czechoslovakia, one of our number, who had been a pastor in that country, told us the following sad story: A woman died in his parish - it seemed, and was being buried when, after the coffin had been put down into the tomb, a soft knocking was heard, and after a moment of listening they should have pulled the coffin again to the surface. But then the husband protested with the words: "Dead is dead", and thereupon they filled the tomb with dirt Many years later the tomb was emptied again to receive another body, and opening the coffin they fonnd the bones of the woman in disorder She had been buried alive. How many other people have been killed by surgeons taking away some organs. Even were it only one, this is a sufficient reason to say "~No!" to this barbarous practice, instead of permitting surgeons to put definitively an end to the life of their victims. Some countries like Japan, Sweden, Israel and Poland do not accept brain death as being really dead, This is logical. The brain -cells comprise only 3% of all the body cells. Even when death enters the brain first, there still remains all the other 97% of all the body cells which can still be alive. "Can a person be considered as dead," asked the neurophysiologist Dr Linke "while 97% ofthe body is still alive?" In the procedure of taking away the organs. the other 97% are killed by flushing the blood cells with household salt, immediately before the slaughter begins. "To remove all organs," said an operating nurse, "the surgeon makes a cut over the body from the throat to the pubis." The problem of brain death concerns mostly victims of accidents, those with wholesale brain damage or of Poisoning. In Austria the law permits, in cases of death by accident, to take away the organs without permission or information, even from foreigners who are often unaware of this barbaric law. This looks like a legalised form of robbery. After having taken away some vital organs the unhappy donor is of course, definitivelv dead. For nurses, assistance at this horrible work is very burdensome.A poll made in Germany, showed that 6004 of the nurses who must assist at this kind of operation, are averse to the practice. Relatives who have consented to the removal of the organs, are often harassed by doubt and a feeling of guilt, and are sometimes affected by physiological illnesses. The recipient of these organs is almost always a sick person. whose life is already in danger. But even after the replacement of the diseased organ by the healthy one the person will never be the same as before. The new organ can be rejected by the body and can need to be removed and another organ obtained and inserted in a second ' operation The aftercare for the patient becomes very often a new burden for the patient, as well as for the family for the remainder of life. The consciousness of having a heart that is no longer the patient's own is humiliating. "who was the person to whom it once belonged; was it perhaps a criminal or a person of the other sex?" The physician does not like to talk about this part of the operation. And it is not very agreeable to think about. Listen to this shocking complaint of a lady who lives, or lived, in thc south of Germany: "Since two years I must go every week to Berlin (300-400 miles)." Her body did not accept the strange heart received by transplantation. She must carry always a mouth mask day and night. Her children may not kiss her She should not touch the earth in her garden. She has her own toilet, her own wash table, her own bedroom- For her, life is, or was, almost unbearable. Hella Frien Schulze is another lady from Germany and the wife of a patient who died 18 months after having had a heart transplant. She said: "I can say that I would never more make a decision concerning transplants or support it. We both have almost gone mad because of it- This should be the opinion of all those who are of sound mind, and most responsible of all should be the physicians and surgeons. Many of them see in the transplant of organs nothing else but a new kind of euthanasia. And euthanasia is murder! True death follows only after the blood circulation has come to a standstill. There is only one thing that can be permitted; this is the removing of an organ during one's lifetime, which can be missed without becoming a cause of death. Examples are one kidney or one eye, for the sake of someone else who is in need of it. Such can only be praised as a great sacrifice of love for one's neighbour (Most thoughts of this article have been taken from a brochure written in German, and edited by the Institute "Fur Ehe undFamilie" ----- Original Message ----- From: bernie brauer To: geocentrism@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Thursday, February 08, 2007 3:27 AM Subject: [geocentrism] Re: Evil - DEADLY Vaccinations for Canadian Schoolgirls Philip, Fair enough.
