A Patient

suicide or die by help of a physician. This, of course, is my opinion and I believe that you

should always try to keep them alive as long as possible. If you are suffering and are

lethally ill, then that is the way that God has it planned out for you. I don’t think that

anyone has the right to take his or her own life or take the life of someone else. In this

country, taking the life of someone else is a major felony and could result in the death

penalty. On the other hand, committing suicide or attempting to commit suicide isn’t a

crime by any means. In an unusual way, this could contradict itself.

Can you really put ownership on life? Do we control our own destiny? Why is it

that attempting to commit suicide is completely fine but someone depriving someone else

of life will most likely result in the rest of his or her life in a cell? We are losing a life

either way so what difference does it make? Ask yourself this – is it really our life to take

in the first place? Do we own it? Everyone has heard about the mass suicide cults that

used to thrive in the 70’s and 80’s. Was the leader of the cult a cr

It only ruled on

whether the public had a general right to assisted suicide. The Supreme Court rendered its decision on the New York

and Washington cases, on 1997-JUN-26.

Physician assisted suicide or PAS is a big issue in the medicine world these days. As an alternative, they made a choice on

whether citizens generally had that right. This issue is not

specifically mentioned in the laws of Utah, North Carolina, and Wyoming. The other 71% agreed because of

discomfort other than pain of their patients. But by the time that the court heard legal arguments, all six had

died. Then

again this is a free country, but I still don’t think we have that right. 53% of the doctor’s patients gave a loss of

dignity as a reason for them wanting to die.

I do not believe in suicide at all, it is one of the worst things that someone could

ever do to himself or herself. They contemplate that the number is

much bigger, as many doctors would be reluctant to reveal unlawful acts they have

performed.

In closing, I still think that PAS is wrong and I will never agree to it. He may have mislead them and lied to

them but that is beside the point. Chief Justice Rehnquist wrote:

"Throughout the nation, Americans are engaged in an earnest and profound debate about the morality, legality and practicality of physician-assisted suicide.
