im speaking from a moral perspective, not a legal one.

The problem is you only consider the alive/dead angle in your moral choice, not the suffering/not suffering part.

If someone is suffering a horrible pain due to a terminal illness and wants to shorten this horrible suffering via euthanasia how can you consider willfully torturing them by keeping them forcefully alive to be moral?

 

i would harldy be responsible for someones suffering just because i wouldnt murder them.

 

 

Well, it goes both ways. First, how can you morally ignore the pain and suffering of an individual asking for relief through death? But then, how can you live with yourself knowing that you were actually or had a part in the death of another person?

 Another thing to consider is if this person is related to you or not. If it’s a loved one, would you let him/her suffer or would you let him/her go in peace? So many moral questions, no morally correct answer.
