A BRIEF HISTORY OF THE CHURCH OF EUTHANASIA
The Church of Euthanasia was inspired by a dream, in which
Rev. Chris Korda confronted an alien intelligence known as
The Being who speaks for the inhabitants of Earth in
other dimensions. The Being warned that our planet's ecosystem is failing, and that
our leaders deny this. The Being asked why our leaders lie to us, and why so many of us believe these lies. Rev. Korda awoke from the dream moaning the Church's infamous slogan,
Save the Planet - Kill Yourself.
Every aspect of the deepening global environmental crisis, including climate change, poisoning of the water and atmosphere, reduction of
biodiversity, and topsoil erosion, directly results from the over-abundance of a single species:
homo sapiens. The human population is increasing by
one million every four days, according the Washington-based Population Reference Bureau. This is a net increase of 95 million per year, the current population of
Mexico.
Even a major war or
epidemic hardly dents the rate of growth, and modern wars have tremendous environmental consequences. It is for these practical reasons, as well as moral ones, that Euthanasians support only
voluntary forms of population reduction, including
suicide, free
abortion, and
sodomy,which they define as any sexual act not intended for procreation. They are also fiercely vegetarian, and support
cannibalism for those who insist on
eating flesh.
The planet is a living, breathing
organism, and is capable of defending itself if necessary. The Church hopes to avoid the
suffering this would entail by achieving a massive
leap of consciousness in which human beings begin to think of themselves, not as individuals belonging to races or nation-states, but as a species. This
species awareness would be the first step towards what
Biodiversityauthor and population expert Paul Erlich calls "our absolute responsibility to protect what are our only known living companions in the universe."
