Euthanasia is derived from Greek, meaning “gentle and easy death”, and usually refers to acts, which terminate or shorten life in order to end suffering (Where the patient is diseased and where there is no hope of recovery).
If an action promotes the best interest of every one concerned and violates no ones rights then that action is morally acceptable and this is true about euthanasia.
If a person has the right to avoid the tortures of an incurable disease and the right to a good death, than euthanasia is right and moral.
Since it will continue to take place even when illegal, it is better to make it legal and put in safeguards to minimise abuse.
The right to die, as in euthanasia, conforms to the principle of freedom, the basic foundation on which our British society stands
Money is used on people who have no hope of recovery and who also have no desire to live, why not let them take resort to euthanasia and use those limited resources to cure people who wish to live.
Religion takes a firm stand insisting that euthanasia is against the word and will of God. If humankind has approved homosexuality, suicide and abortion in the face of religious opposition why can it not approve euthanasia?
