Dutch euthanasia law used kill alcoholic 41

[martybegan]

Doctors are supposed to preserve life. Only in cases of unavoidable death and suffering should they be allowed to break their goal of preserving life to end it.

Doctors are supposed to listen to their patients.
If a person is in what he (not you) believes to be existential pain that is too great for him to bear it is not up to you or anyone else to tell him he must be forced to live and suffer his own personal torment.

No, he can off himself if he so chooses.

I already addressed this. The Dr then can prescribe him enough medication to overdose or set up a Kavorkian device and let the patient initiate it

But what it all boils down to is that it really is none of your business

So are a lot of things we legislate. That isn't a real answer.

Of course it is.

You cannot legislate the choice to live or die

You can legislate if you want to allow a certified professional to take part in a person's choice of dying.
