PRO- ASSISTED SUICIDE
VS. PRO- NATURAL DEATH
- The Christian Catholic religion strictly forbids the taking of a life by human hands. This includes assisted suicide. Even if the sickness is terminal (which is a demand of the euthanasia process), only God can take the decision as if to when the person shall die and how.
- Secular humanism states that under the conditions of a terminal disease or extreme suffering, a persons “quality” of life decreases causing the person a great level of discontent. With contentment or happiness as the standard, some lives are deemed to have such low quality that it is reasonable to prefer death.
- The US currently doesn’t adapt euthanasia nation wide like Netherlands and Belgium. They have decided to take the matter state by state because an exact guideline is needed to make the process useful without violating human rights or involving murder. For example the term of euthanasia, when and how it applies, to whom it applies and how the procedure will take place.
I believe euthanasia should be applied around the world when the patient falls under the conditions. Whether its voluntary that the person choses the procedure, or involuntary when the person is in no conditions to continue living or chose their future. If the disease is terminal and a lot of suffering is implied why ignore a patients dying wish and make him/her endure pain during their last instances in this world?
