The strange thing is that death (of the physical body) is already assured for every man. Why are these sick insane fiends so enamored of killing - other people! Of course some kill themselves too. I can only assume deep seated hatred towards other human beings, rooted in their hatred of God, the source of all Life.
What was once a science fiction warning of a future that seemed outlandish is now reality.
Many of these people are in a great deal of pain and humiliation (losing control of body functions) and no longer want to endure it. Others have become a huge financial burden to their families and don’t want destroy their livlihoods. I can’t imagine how awful things are for them, so I don’t feel fit to judge them. This doesn’t mean that euthanasia is a good thing. We also need to realize that end-of-life care leaves much to be desired and that also needs to be addressed. Stopping assisted suicide is only part of the solution.
