Choice to die in the future?

Question

do you think people over a certain age or in poor health will be allowed to have a socially acceptable last party and Dr assisted death?

That is what I want for myself. I am 64 and in very poor health a widow with no children

Answer 1

Well whatever your reason is todays society will not allow that, atleast in a bigger country wide option type of thing.

Answer 2

I myself would like to see the stigma of "discontinuing" one's life if
living were to become unbearable due to illness or infirmity. I also don't believe that age should necessarily be a factor in making the decision. I believe that an individual has the right to choose how and when to die if the circumstances make it necessary, One shouldn't have to pick between socially acceptable behavior and the right to decide. As it stands today,
most church doctrine forbids "suicide". State and federal laws prohibit it and even insurance companies can with hold payments
to clients' families if suicide is a factor.
What of the individuals rights? Why are people forced to suffer, and pay exorbitant medical costs when a painful or lingering death is inevitable?
I don't forsee these things changing in the near future, nor do I see the return of basic individuals' rights; mores the pity.

Answer 3

It's my desire that people will receive Jesus as their saviour before they die. 'It is appointed for man to die once and then comes the judgement.' But 'God is willing that none should perish.' If it were in my power I would prevent the legalisation of euthanasia because a non-Christan hastening their own death will be much worse off after they die, and have no recourse.

And because 'He who is forgiven much loves much.' I believe that Christian's would not want to extinguish their God given life but instead, spend as long as they can on this earth encouraging people to accept Christ as their Saviour.

I also believe that God heals and want's you to have 'life to the full' (in this life and the next).

Be healed.

Answer 4

Allowed? Maybe. Does it happen? Probably. Perhaps in the future hospitals will offer mercy killings to patients who request it. Weather this is right or wrong, ultimately, thats for you to decide.

Answer 5

I live in Oregon. We do have physician assisted suicide, for the terminally ill. The citizens of the State of Oregon voted for it. Now politicians from other states are trying to revoke it.

Answer 6

dear no one have the right to chose death by himself.
if one do so than he kill him self.

If one kill him self than he do a wrong act.
look at Allah's desire and bear what you have.
be happy where you are.
