It’s pretty complicated. But I think the act itself is motivated out of not wanting to go through the pain. Some compare it to hospice, but it’s not hospice. It’s not easing the pain, it’s cutting it off. Also, the doctor that administers the dose. Wouldn’t that be considered murder? Does she not want to be a burden on her family? I’ve put thought into this, and I think it would get you sent straight to hell. I think that because she could still live, the tumor could go into remission. God can’t forgive you when you’re dead, and ending your own life for any reason I think is wrong. Unless there is no choice to save lives. Take the movie Armageddon for example, somebody had to die for the world to live...in that situation I think it would be okay. It’s basically playing Russian Roulette with your soul.

“I once saw a man fall off a cliff the only handhold was a clump of grass, he must have known it wouldn’t hold.”

But he still tried. That’s what counts. I think.

“But I think the act itself is motivated out of not wanting to go through the pain.”

Jesus Christ, when knowing that He was about to go through EXRUCIATING pain, said to His Father, “Not my will, but yours be done”.

What if He had opted for an easier way out?

He is our example.
