EUTHANISTS WILL HONOR HEAVEN'S GATE

The Church of Euthanasia will honor the deceased members of Heaven's Gate in a ceremony to be held Sunday, April 13 at 3:00pm on the Boston Common. The heroic web designers will be made honorary members of the Church of Euthanasia, and after a service led by Rev. Chris Korda, 39 earthworms will be released from containers into the grass. The male Heaven's Gate members will receive special honors for undergoing surgical castration in their efforts to avoid procreation.

Euthanists advocate restoring balance between Humans and the remaining species on Earth through voluntary population reduction, and actively support the right-to-die, pro-abortion, animal rights and sexual pleasure movements. Their DADA-inspired tactics and vociferous opposition to the Christian pro-fertility cults led to spectacular confrontations in front of abortion clinics last year.

The Church of Euthanasia was founded in 1992 after Rev. Korda channeled the alien message "SAVE THE PLANET--KILL YOURSELF." Like Heaven's Gate, the Church has an international following, and disseminates its point of view through the Internet, as well as paid advertising, musical releases, and its journal, "Snuff It."

Rev. Chris Korda will also appear on the web-exploring PBS TV show "Internet Cafe" during the week following April 18. Please check their station listing for the exact date and time.
