Euthanasia Debate Notes

Pros believe that terminally ill people have the right to decide whether they want to live or not. Many countries in Europe have already adopted this thought. Humans have an inherited right of choice, and this should be respected.

Cons believe that it goes against Hippocratic Oath. They feel it goes against many religions, as it stated in the Bible to not kill one another. Illness severity is subjective by doctor to doctor, so assisted suicide should not be an option. Euthanasia is murder. They argue that euthanasia could not end a worthless life, because no life is worthless. Killing them would just hinder any future opportunities.
