 >>> Clarence Hogan on Medical Ethics 
 WE> No victim, no crime.  
 
 WE> If a person commits suicide, he has succeeded and by his own
 WE> recognition is not a victim.  
 CH> Hummmm, thought that would make him a victim of his own success!
 
 WE> But if he fails, then is he a victim of a bungled attempt? 
 CH> Yep, for he is them a victim of his own failure!
 CH> Either way, he is his own victim and since the victim is dead, 
 CH> there can be no crime, right?
 CH> Therefore...KILL the victims and end crime, right?
This reminds me of the Roman centurion who never killed Christians, he just 
sent them to heaven where they wanted to be.
... Angels are extraterrestrials 'cause they're out of this world.
