- Euthanasia
- FOR
- Doctors and nurses should focus on patients who have a chance of recovery.
- It relieves the family of emotional and financial burdens.
- Humans should have the right to choose when they die - freewill.
- Expensive medical service being wasted.
- Quality of life - the person might want to be remembered as the person they have always been, not suffering.
- In some situations it is the most loving thing to end someone's life.
- Animals lives are ended when they're in pain - why not humans?
- AGAINST
- People may recover and live.
- People may feel pressurised into euthanasia because they feel like a nuisance.
- Palliative care - treatment that ensures the end of a patient's life is as pain free as possible.
- Sanctity of life - life is sacred.
- "God gives life and God takes away life", humans do not possess the right.
- Hospices are an alternative.
- "Do not kill".
