Do you believe that euthanasia should be made legal in Britain?
People believe that it is technically murder to have a Doctor kill you. But then animals have the right to die if they are in pain, why not humans?

I think for whatever reason up to 12 weeks, you can't force someone to have a baby againts their will, that's assault. I'm not saying it's nice or you have to like it but it is the lesser of two evils.

you can but whoever took you out to Switzerland, when they return to this country take the risk of being charged with murder. It was in the news about two years ago.

fair enough, i have to say also to a certain point i am for both, but to kill a baby because of a cleft palet(sp?) is just wrong. but to save the mothers life then im all for it.

Yeah i know, odd but regards abortion i take the rights over the mother over an unborn child but only up to a point. What i forgot to say about it was that i dont like it either but i can accept it as necessary evil. I think maybe i'm just more protective of the life thats already here.

It COULD be abbused but not if a law is made with no loop holes and what is says is strict an shows that it cannot be abused.

> Oddly enough i'm pro choice when it comes to abortion.

So you will kill an unborn child who could live to be a 150 year old person who made a cure for all diseases or something, but not someone who is terminally ill and in pain everyday with the poorest quality of life? Ok. It is your choice.

I can understand that, i can understand all the arguments for euthanasia and i can't argue with them but for me it comes right back to how i feel about it and it just feels wrong. I think i lack the intelligence to explain why.
Oddly enough i'm pro choice when it comes to abortion.

is this why you say no? but surely if you can not eat for yourself and in pain daily then you would want the right to go to a doctor and be "put to sleep" wouldnt you?

Because animals dont have the capacity to kill themselves, nor do they have any real knowledge of death, any sort of morality. The choice is made in their best interests because they can't make the choice themselves and whether you like it or not, human life is more valued than animal.
Now i fully expect what i've said to be ripped apart, even i can see big holes in it but when it really comes down to it, it just feels wrong to me and thats why i'm against it.

Never figured you would make a statement like that Celestine. Perhaps Kavorkian felt he was in a position to help terminally ill parients die with dignity and respect, as opposed to spending the rest of it in constant pain and distress. I doubt he was killing for kicks. In addition perhaps the issue of religion didn't get in his way as he didn't subscribe to any faith.

"they have no concience" is a very sweeping generalization.
