    Wow, what a hilarious rant full of outright lies and misinformation. Are you capable of telling the truth, or is your position so weak that you can’t make your point without repeatedly asserting debunked points such as imaginary “obligations” or by ignoring those with irremediable lifelong physical and/or psychological suffering as determined by medical professionals? Because you seem to want to use your own ignorance to judge these people rather than let professionals be the arbiters due to your own twisted morality.

    It seems that you just want to see people suffer. Once again: who are you to judge whether someone should suffer rather than be deserving of relief? Why do you refuse to answer?

      Do you literally not know what ethics is? You’ve acted like a complete and total moron in every reply on this post.

      You realise you can sum your position to

      If someone desires something

      Then we should grant it despite any prohibition on active killing, ( presumably so long as it does not harm an individual other than the subject)

      But this isn’t actually accepted by virtually anyone, see suicidality for temporary conditions or just the fact that we have no apparent obligation to grant something based on mere desire.

      The entire pro-euthanasia argument relies on basing moral principles on wildly variable emotions and sympathy.

      The question is not whether or not someone should suffer, but whether it is permissible to kill another, or even a proper choice. Should assisted suicide be granted for temporary conditions? After all subjects of temporary conditions suffer too and they may even wish to die. If you say no, then clearly your decision making is able to override a desire of the subject. If you say yes, then there is no logical barrier to killing any momentarily sad person.

      “Who are you to judge … Why do you refuse to answer”

      I’ve been answering this entire time. The answer is everyone is able to judge, there appears to be this underlying fundamental intuition and logic across humans that if followed leads to the statements I’ve made.

      Feeling sad for someone and wanting to alleviate there suffering does not logically lead to “therefore we should actively kill them”.

        The question is not whether or not someone should suffer

        That’s the only question. Because the standard here is “irremediable lifelong physical and/or psychological suffering”. By labeling such a person “momentarily sad” you’re not only judging them, you’re placing your judgement above that of medical professionals. You’re also lying about the necessary conditions for consideration for the program.

        And aiding in a person’s suicide with their consent is not the same as simply killing them.

        You can’t have an honest, rational discussion, like an adult, then there’s no point in continuing
