OCOD Begins

The acronym O.C.O.D. stands for Oppose the Culture of Death. The purpose of this blog is to examine issues such as Euthanasia, Infanticide, Assisted Suicide, Eugenics and occasionally abortion. Our focus here is to address primarily the first four or end of life issues. I am opposed to abortion of any type, however, there are ample resources in print or on the web that address this issue from an ethical stand point.

There are very few resources solely dedicated to end of life issues and that is why I started this blog. Up front, let me say that I am unashamedly opposed to the practices mentioned in the first paragraph. In saner times people who advocated such things would have been hung. At Nuremberg several were rightly hung! Today such advocates are hired by prestigious universities such as Princeton to pass on their twisted philosophies of evil. They campaign for high ranking political office and work to legalize the murder of the defenseless.

The term Culture of Death was coined by the courageous Pope John Paul II. It refers to our society's desire to prematurely end the lives of human beings. Actively hastening death is properly called murdering a fellow human being. These pundits of "Good Death' side step this issues by linguistic spin-doctoring. Acts of murder are now boldly mislabelled as "termination, and mercy."

Let's begin my journey of openly and unashamedly opposing this culture of death at every turn and at every opportunity. Hopefully my thoughts will tug at your own conscience and heart and inspire you to join the opposition!
