I think I know where you're going with this.Doctors are involved in executions?

You're gonna' say they can't perform executions because they're not supposed to do any harm to the patient right? Well I really wouldn't say that a death row inmate is a "patient" so that wouldn't apply.
Hmmmm ... so the original Hippocratic Oath said, "I will not give a lethal drug to anyone if I am asked, ..." but they took that out for the modern version so it's okay for modern doctors to intentionally cause cessation of life. Cessation of the life of a healthy human body which is not threatening the life of any other body.
This is mind-numbingly sick. I'm getting dizzy from the thought of it. Revulsion. That's hideous.

The original Hippocratic Oath also required that people swear to Apollo and Aescalpius, forbade doing any surgery, forbad anyone to "teach medicine" to anyone outside the Hippocratic guild, and forbade having sex with the male slaves of your patients.
It was revised because it's over 1500 frigging years old. You can see how there might be some relevancy issues involved with modern medicine. Furthermore, the Hippocratic Oath is "non-binding". It's not a legal document or obligation. It's basically "feel good" window dressing for medical ceremonies. If I do a appendectomy, Apollo will not, in fact, strike me down from Mt. Olympus.
No medical student or physicians is obligated to swear to the Hippocratic Oath and many schools no longer use it, to include the revision. If you are a Jehoviah's Witness, it violates your religion to be forced to swear to an Oath.
I am not even religious and I am not terribly thrilled about the prospect of swearing to Greek Gods.
You guys make waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaayyyyy to much out of the Hippocratic Oath.
Yep.

It's not about the Hippocratic Oath. That adds a dimension to the discussion but it's not about some specific set of words. It transcends words.
Whether there was an oath or not, it's sick and disgusting that doctors would use their skill to terminate a human life which was not anywhere near ending on its own and was not threatening another human life.
It's homicide.
