The
SUICIDE
EPIDEMIC
WE
HAVE AN EPIDEMIC OF YOUNG CHILDREN
KILLING THEMSELVES
SUICIDE
EPIDEMIC IN USA - Little
children as young as three are killing themselves in the USA,
where a recent news report labels suicide epidemic in the most
affluent nation of the world.
Canada and
the rest of the world isn't far behind, but until recently we
didn't have statistics because child suicides just weren't
reported publicly.
 NOW
THE SAD STORY IS KNOWN EVERYWHERE!
Not only the
incurably ill, the chronic manic depressive or jilted lovers are
killing themselves, but so are teenagers and little children.
The European
situation has taken an ugly twist, too. A British company has
even published a book on how to commit suicide.
It's just
too much for the normal mentality to grasp. Why would anybody
want to destroy themselves when life is so precious? There is so
much to live for; family, work, friends, love and God.
Each of us
has a built in safety mechanism to help us in times of danger.
The adrenaline begins to flow when we are afraid and need to
escape a dangerous situation - extra strength comes to us in
times of trouble. Everything within our beings is programmed for
self preservation, and our love reaches out to help others in
need.
WHAT
ARE THE CAUSES OF THIS
SUICIDE EPIDEMIC ?
Then why the
suicide epidemic? What are the underlying causes for this rush
towards death, for so many young people and others committing
suicide.
Large
numbers of Russians have become delusional with the hopelessness
of the totalitarian state and have resigned themselves to a slow
form of suicide through alcohol. Vodka dulls the brain and makes
suicide easier, they claim.
MANY
TURN TO ALCOHOL & DRUGS
AS A SLOW SUICIDE
Alcohol and
drugs enslave millions around the world and they are responsible
for many violent deaths on the highways, murders and suicides.
Young Metes
and Native Indians are disillusioned because of the hopelessness
they see around them. Many are unemployed and lack a trade or
profession. The majority of them are simply ignored. Some are on
drugs and alcohol and many feel discrimination against them.
Let's face
it, there is much discrimination against Native Canadian
Indians. Native Indians are certainly looked down upon in
many areas and treated as second class citizens. Yet, they are
the original Canadians and the discrimination against them is
unjust and unfair.
CANADIAN
INDIANS HAVE SUFFERED
MORE THAN ANY RACE
IN MY
OPINION, CANADIAN INDIANS HAVE SUFFERED MORE SOCIALLY,
ECONOMICALLY AND NATIONALLY THAN ANY OTHER RACE AND IT'S ONLY
RECENTLY THAT THEY ARE PROTESTING!
Another
cause of the high suicide hate is without a doubt the present
economic picture. The economy with its gloom and doom for
so many, has brought heartache and pain and hopelessness.
With the present generation being pampered by welfare, high
wages and a free ride for so long, when the crunch comes they
just cannot cope, so they give up and end it with suicide.
HUGE
FINANCIAL LOSSES CAUSE MANY SUICIDES
Financial
reverses where an individual loses everything often pushes a
person over the brink to suicide. The Bre-X scandal recently
claimed its first victim, BC lawyer Lawrence Beadle took his own
life after it was officially confirmed that the Bre-X stock was
worthless.
Beadle’s
wife, Davida, told New Westminster police that her husband had
become depressed over an investment in Bre-X Minerals Ltd which
had collapsed several days earlier!
During the
great crash of '29 many wealthy business tycoons who lost
everything overnight took the big leap. They felt
that suicide was their only option as everything they had worked
for was gone instantly.
FEAR
OF WAR & NUCLEAR DESTRUCTION
TAKES AWAY HOPE
Another
factor contributing to the increasing suicide rate is the
psychology of war and nuclear destruction that haunts our young
people. After the dissolution of the Soviet Union, people felt
quite safe. Recently (May, 1997), Boris Yeltsin, ticked off by
the expansion of plans of NATO - stated that Russia reserves the
right of 'First Strike' with nuclear weapons if threatened.
Fear of the
future makes you feel hopeless and wonder what is the point of
trying. If the world is going to end in a holocaust,
why not end it the way we choose - an overdose of drugs, a
bottle of pills, a razor blade or a gunshot?
WILL
THIS INCREASE IN SUICIDES GET WORSE?
Unfortunately,
the answer is yes. Until people feel hope, hope for the future,
hope for the world and hope for themselves. Things will
get much worse unless a new psychology of life and living
emerges - a new philosophy that destroys the myth that man just
happened by chance, that we evolved from an ape. People need to
feel they are important and that there is a reason for their
life.
WE
WERE CREATED IN THE IMAGE OF GOD, NOT
LIKE AN ANIMAL OR INSECT
You
are important to God - you do matter to God
Human beings
are one of a kind, each person is unique and special and
each life is precious. You are important to God.
There
is a special purpose for your life
There is a
purpose for your life, there is a purpose for each person born.
Finding out what your purpose is, will give you a reason to
exist, a reason to try and a reason to succeed.
DON'T
GIVE UP - Turn to God for the answers
Turn to
God for the answers. God created you and God has a plan
for you. Its up to each person to find the plan and
purpose that suits them and to follow that plan. You must
pray and seek God and he will answer your prayers. Don't
let Satan discourage you - Satan is come to kill and destroy
you, but God's love fills you with hope and life.
You do
matter to God and your life matters. When you stop
thinking of yourself and begin to think of what you can do to
help others, suddenly you have a purpose. Drugs, alcohol
and suicide are just a cop-out - the easy way out of a
meaningless existence - but staying on this earth and making a
difference takes strength. The stronger you become the
more you will matter to yourself and to others. As you
help others, you also help yourself and your life becomes more
meaningful.
Therefore we
must stop the killing of millions of unborn babies and change
the word 'abortion' to 'murder'. And we must, once and for all,
get rid of the Hitler mentality of infanticide, euthanasia and
genocide.
Culture
of Death: Assisted Suicide, Euthanasia & Genocide
The rush to
assisted suicide by short-sighted men and women in the medical
field sometimes triggers cloak & dagger killings on
unwitting and unwilling patients, whom they feel are filling a
space someone else should occupy!
Why are we
seeing evil things such as assisted suicide escalate? Pope
John Paul II addressed this phenomenon correctly when he spoke
of what he calls 'The Culture of Death'!
Dr. Henry
Morgentaler - the secular humanist - who rejects God and our
Lord Jesus Christ, has done irreparable harm to our society, the
dignity of women and human life in general during his long &
bloody career as Canada's leading abortionist, fetus killer!
Dr. Jack
Kevorkian has "blood upon his hands" also in his role
as America's leading exterminator of the terminally ill, who
have requested his help in committing suicide.
The trouble
is two-fold! No. 1 - Dr. Jack Kevorkian is setting a bad
precedent. If things are too tough, throw in the towel. We often
hear horror stories of people who were depressed and only
thought they were terminally ill or had received an erroneous
diagnosis before committing suicide.
No. 2 -
Whoever assists in an assisted suicide is playing God. No
one has the right to take human life but God. Job said,
"The Lord gave, and the Lord hath taken away; blessed be
the name of the Lord". (Job 1:21) Ultimately, only God
decides if we live or die and when!
A
very important question to ask those promoting gay awareness and
gay rights
Then we have
the homosexuals who call themselves "happy or gay"
people but are anything but, according to my counseling sessions
with them and other reports!
Homosexuals
are in the high risk category to acquire the HIV virus and AIDS,
as well as numerous other STD's (sexually transmitted diseases)
and suicide!
I have a
grave concern about governmental agencies, media journalists,
medical doctors and clergy who are pushing for more GAY
AWARENESS and GAY RIGHTS. Are they really desiring the best for
these tormented victims of perversion? OR DO THEY HAVE A
HIDDEN AGENDA?
Some are
caring folks. Others, I'm afraid may be 'closet Kevorkians' -
possibly homosexuals - who despise the others, knowing that the
more liberty and license the homosexual lobby acquires, the more
AIDS, T.B., STD's and suicides there will be!
Was
Adolf Hitler a homosexual?
If you think
that's far fetched - remember this: There was a sizeable number
of homosexuals among Adolf Hitler's elite S.S. inner circle and
Hitler's relationship with Eva Braun was allegedly only platonic
- leaving us with the question - "Was Hitler also an
homosexual"?
One thing we
do know is that Hitler's top homosexual aids helped carry out
his orders to imprison and kill thousands of homosexuals. We
also know that the world's most famous Jew hater and killer was
himself part Jewish! How ironic!
Let us never
forget - when this life is over, we will meet our Maker, we will
reap what we have sowed.
In
the meantime, let's begin loving one another and stop killing
ourselves
