Ok. We shouldn’t celebrate death.

But the fact that lots of people call their own shots through the dying process is one of the facts of life.

When I see folks arguing for this “right” I shake my head. They are arguing for something that exists already. It just not blasted from the hilltop.

People who are dying are generally respected. The folks wanting to facilitate it in public are attention hounds.

I respect every individual’s decision. I don’t advocate suicide, but if someone wants to pull their own plug, that’s fine with me. It doesn’t need to be on Facebook.

They want it to be easier and more culturally acceptable. They want to think themselves as pioneers in Human rights for murdering themselves. They despise their own life and other's, and want others to despise it just as much. As you said, they already had the "right to die". That was never the real issue.

The existence of evil does not demand our legitimization of it.
