Maybe Alcor should declare itself a religion, a religion of reason with no
doctrines except for one: Individuals should be able to decide for
themselves when they die. Alcor could tell Fox News and Rush Limbaugh that
stopping them from performing euthanasia on willing church members would
violate the religious freedom of Alcor and of its congregation. And as a
bonus there would be sweet tax breaks.  Stupid people call Cryonics a
religion anyway so they might as well make it official and get some
advantage out of it.
