Pro. We won't put death row inmates through cruel and unusual punishment, so why should we make our loved ones suffer when they have given up and can't take the pain anymore? And I am not talking about emotional issues or mental problems, I mean gut wrenching terminal illness pain.
If my twin sister asked me to please let her go, I would help her absolutely. But she would never ask unless she had to.
I don't like to think of anyone suffering needlessly, and my point of view has nothing to do with religion at all, but the spirit.

professional: you could die in case you prefer to. this could be a expert for glaring motives. different professional: your loved ones gets your existence insurance funds offered your dying is ruled a homicide (not suicide). Con: the different individual can get caught via regulation enforcement different con: if your dying is ruled a SUICIDE, your loved ones won't get any of your existence insurance funds and you will have wasted your existence and ruined theirs.

NO! WHAT A FOOLISH QUESTION. Suicide is morally wrong. You do not have the right to kill, even yourself.
This is the same type of silly thinking that makes people think abortion can ,in any way be, all right.

Yes.
As long as the person can be proven to be in clear mental health, and not acting irrationally, they should be able to make such end-of-life decisions without govt interference.
