You consider it humane because you assume that it will end the patient's suffering.  In fact, you have no idea what comes after this life.  Holding up euthanasia as a means to end suffering is total guess-work and euthanasia advocates selling this to patients without a shred of proof of what lies on the other side is wrong.

I for one know that hell is real and I also know that the suffering there is far worse than anything in this life and I want to help as many people as possible avoid it.  That is why I oppose euthanasia.

For the record, I am a Catholic and I strongly oppose the death penalty, as well.

Your faith is something to admire but you have to remember that it is up to you to believe what you believe and let others live their lives the way they want as best they can. It is not up to you if I decide to take up driving, have a family, play video games and not if I, in good frame of mind, decide I don't want to live anymore. If I am suffering in this life but I have lead a good honest one, euthanasia may be a way out of the pain into a good afterlife, not a bad one.



Hmm, pie.
