Minnesota Atheists' "Atheists Talk" radio show

Posted on: April 4, 2009 6:11 PM, by Greg Laden

The Final Exit Network

Sunday, April 5, 2009, 9-10 a.m. Central Time

The mission of the Final Exit Network is to serve people who are suffering intolerably from irreversible conditions which have become more than they can bear.  The Network was recently raided and their funds confiscated by the State of Georgia under the false accusation that they have been assisting suicide, and this is something they most emphatically do not do.  Jerry Dincin is the president of the Final Exit Network and is the Minnesota Atheists' scheduled speaker for our April 19th Monthly Member's' Meeting.
 
Jerry will explain the purpose of this educational organization, their goals and the circumstances leading to this false legal accusation.  George Kane, the Secretary of the Minnesota Atheists will ask Jerry for keen insights into the ethics of exit education, the interference into the right-to-die by the religious "moral" organizations and about plans to fight this legal persecution.  

We welcome questions during the program at (952) 946-6205
or radio@MinnesotaAtheists.org.

"Atheists Talk" airs live on AM 950 KTNF in the Minneapolis/St. Paul area.

"You're supposed to suffer." The voices in my head say so.

I look to the day when one can help and not get in trouble for it. And honestly, I am not all that keen on leaving it where Oregon and now Washington have, with allowing prescriptions. Given the worst and my living will becomes relevant, I would much rather get a shot of sodium morphate, than be removed from or denied life support, to die with whatever attending suffering and indignity there might be.

I'll definitely be listening...
