Ethunasia Laws

i should be against euthanasia considering my profession and the vows accompanied with that... but then, sometimes i think that we have to consider other things, not only the life of the person that is on life support, what if that person doesnt want to go on with life on that life support, okay, here's the situation... let's say, one family member got sick, so she got hospitalized, they're not that rich, so while keeping up with the hospital bills, her kids, let's say 5 kids need to stop school and work, so they had to actually ask money from their relatives, be indebted with a lot of people, organizations will of course help, but let's say this time, they help 75% only, so the family really has to take that burden, by the way, the family member who was sick, she has a terminal disease, although there is still hope after that life support, ... to cut it short, who would you then choose, the mother who is sick or the kids who has a future somewhere sometime?

Hi mwashu. Surely putting someone on a life support machine is playing God thouhg, don't you think?

I so agree with you on that. If I was asked to pull the plug, I would never do it because I dont' think I am capable of taking a life at all.

Wow that's crazy, I just looked up what exactly 'Ethunasia Laws' is, and wow, I'm a little surprised, is this something that's actually legal in the US?

I am completely against ethunasia. Nobody even the most close people have no moral and ethical right to control the life of their partber. This is a crime. Or at least a terrible moral problem, because after this act the person must live with this during all his life. He will deluse himself probably that his action is good, nobile...but in fact this is a murder. And his own conscience will be his worst judge.

I hope you don't rate my response negative for not agreeing with you. When doctors play God in the name of chemical medicine then I chose to play God in the name of my own choices. I believe that we have God inside and that it is not external and so by creating infernal laws to prevent euthanasia you are not allowing me to be my own God, but subject to someone else's wantings. I pray I do not suffer like an animal as some people have been made to do. I also pray that science will soon see that the body is organic in nature and that it is our consciousness that makes us who we are. Often it has already left the building long before the body ceases to pulse.
