Euthanasia

kedar · Apr 07, 2006, 08:34 AM

Hello Honored Members of AO...

What are your views on euthanasia? Do you think it alright to put a person to death just because he/she is extremely ill or is elderly, facing extreme pain that cannot be alleviated? Is it a crime? Should people turn to euthanasia to end their sufferings?

-Thoughts & Ideas-

I think euthanasia isn't honorable. Euthanasia would ONLY be alright if permission was granted and the person has fallen terribly ill or is lethally injured. That is the only thing that would make euthanasia O.K., but I don't really like it.

well i think if the ill person wants to end his misserable life by euthanesia is his own decision.

Im all for Euthanasia. I think someone should be allowed to die peacefully and not suffer. A dog or horse has that right, shouldnt we? Were as good as dogs?

Its better to die than to suffer, and its better to live if you can handle it.

I understand what you mean, Kastelic-Sami. It can be considered, in one point of view, as a good method to end suffering. Some call it as a good deed because you are ending someone's suffering. But, isn't this kinda like murder? Shouldn't we just let nature to take its course?

No if theres no hope and you just suffer for years.

Yes, I know. ^_^ But, what happened to the idea of living life to the fullest? Who knows what there is to happen if they live along? Something of great good can eventuate, too. If they leave early, they won't even be able to regret. Taking life as a challenge, and setting it as an example for others to live by can upbring great good and confidence to the hearts of other people. It might even allow them to live longer.

...hmmm....well there going to die anyays so why not put them out of there misary?its not rerally an act of murder if the person is suffering

Killing somebody to allieviate pain and suffering that cant be stopped is probably the right thing to do but killing a premature babies is where i draw the line just because they may have a difficult life is no excuse to kill them ....ARG now im just applying it to sircumstnce and suitability and thats wrong anyhow it should be decided upon by doctors with at least 15 years of experiance because killing somebody is not easy and you have to learn to distance yourself from that person like doctors do with all their pacients
