    I honestly think that for some it's necessary, some people have just been through too much to just live on because people want them to live. For anyone who can't cope with certain experiences too hard get over, human euthanasia is mercy. In my opinion.

    @@zion6680 I have cancer and I know I won't live much longer. Unfortunately it is illegal in my country to have euthanasia so some are going abroad to find some relief. There are some private organizations that do help for a fee of course and in my mind I just don't want to be a burden to anyone. I despise the idea of being a burden to my family, friends, colleagues. I have given thougt to Dignitas but have heard troubling stories about that organization. Perhaps I should fly to San Francisco? Any how I do hope you have a wonderful day.

    Hi! I was wondering in regards to physician assisted suicide? Would you say there’s any arguments specific to its legalisation, or it’s general arguments in regards to autonomy and such still apply? Also does the double effect play a part with physician assisted suicide in regards to its legalisation? Or it’s not relevant

    Actually with the case of physician-assisted suicide there will only be prosecution if they have exerted their authority over the individual (see the ‘Martin’ case within the Tony Nicklinson case, when the DPP then offered further clarification). They are also unlikely to prosecute anyway, for example Michael Irwin has assisted numerous patients fly to Dignitas and has been investigated, but never prosecuted. Otherwise a good video!

    Legalise it with iron cast rules. Living an unbearable life is pure torture. But have a clause that it can be immediately made illegal again if there are cases proven to be an abuse of the law and rules (such as being pressured into it by family members). And introduce a law of life imprisonment for such family members.

    I had to watch my grandma go from being this strong individual sharp woman to someone who was skin and bones who had to be fed by bottle due to dementia and Alzheimer’s. I helped my mom(in small ways) to take care of her in her last moments. I know she would never ever want this but I believe it should be legalized it should be a choice(with obviously strong checks and balances). But at the same time it shouldn’t be a crutch that governments have to cut funding to those disabled because it is morally reprehensible that someone would want to commit suicide simply because they can’t afford to live anymore.

    Consider the following copy and pastes from my files: * There are 3 basic options for life itself, which reduce down to 2, which reduce down to only 1: a. We truly have some sort of actual conscious existence throughout all of future eternity. b. We die trying to truly have some sort of actual conscious existence throughout all of future eternity. c. We die not trying to truly have some sort of actual conscious existence throughout all of future eternity. * 3 reduced down to 2: a. We truly have some sort of actual conscious existence throughout all of future eternity. b. We don't. And note, two out of the three options above, we die. * 2 reduced down to 1: a. We truly have some sort of actual conscious existence throughout all of future eternity. b. We truly don't have any conscious existence throughout all of future eternity. (And note, these two appear to be mutually exclusive. Only one way would be really true.) And then ask yourself the following questions: 1. Ask yourself: How exactly do galaxies form? The current narrative is that matter, via gravity, attracts other matter. The electric universe model also includes universal plasma currents. 2. Ask yourself: How exactly do galaxies become spiral shaped in a cause and effect state of existence? At least one way would be orbital velocity of matter with at least gravity acting upon that matter, would cause a spiral shaped effect. The electric universe model also includes energy input into the galaxy, which spiral towards the galactic center, which then gets thrust out from the center, at about 90 degrees from the input. 3. Ask yourself: What does that mean for a solar system that exists in a spiral shaped galaxy? Most probably that solar system would be getting pulled toward the galactic gravitational center. 4. Ask yourself: What does that mean for species that exist on a planet, that exists in a solar system, that exists in a spiral shaped galaxy, in an apparent cause and effect state of existence? Most probably that if those species don't get off of that planet, and out of that solar system, and probably out of that galaxy too, (if it's even actually possible to do for various reasons), then they are all going to die one day from something and go extinct with probably no conscious entities left from that planet to care that they even ever existed at all in the first place, much less whatever they did and or didn't do with their time of existence. 5. Ask yourself: For those who might make it out of this galaxy, (here again, assuming it could actually be done for various reasons), where to go to next, how long to get there, how to safely land, and then, what's next? Hopefully they didn't land in another spiral shaped galaxy or a galaxy that would become spiral shaped one day, otherwise, they would have to galaxy hop through the universe to stay alive, otherwise, they still die one day from something with no conscious entities being left from the original planet to care they even ever existed at all in the first place, much less that they made it out of their own galaxy. They failed to consciously survive throughout all of future eternity. 6. Ask yourself: What exactly matters throughout all of future eternity and to whom does it exactly and eternally matter to? Either at least one species truly consciously survives throughout all of future eternity somehow, someway, somewhere, in some state of existence, even if only by a continuous succession of ever evolving species, for life itself to have continued meaning and purpose to, OR none do and life itself is all ultimately meaningless in the grandest scheme of things. Our true destiny currently appears to be: 1. We are ALL going to die one day from something. 2. We are ALL going to forget everything we ever knew and experienced. 3. We are ALL going to be forgotten one day in future eternity as if we never ever existed at all in the first place. Currently: Nature is our greatest ally in so far as Nature gives us life and a place to live it, AND Nature is also our greatest enemy that is going to take it all away. (OSICA) * (Note: This includes the rich, powerful, and those who believe in the right to life and the sanctity of human life. God does not actually exist and Nature is not biased other than as Nature. Nature does what Nature does in a cause and effect kind of way. Truth is still truth and reality is still reality, regardless of whatever we believe that reality to be. And denying future reality will not make future reality any less real in a cause and effect state of existence.) ** Hence also though, legalizing suicide (or at least make suicide not illegal) so as to let people leave this life on their own terms if they wish to do so. Many people and species are going to die in the 6th mass extinction event that has already started, at least some, horrible deaths. Many will wish they could die, and all will, eventually. And the 6th mass extinction event will not be the last mass extinction event for this Earth. But if suicide were legal (or at least not illegal), at least some people would not have the added guilt of breaking societies' law before doing so. Just trying to plan ahead here. Giving people an 'out' if they wish to take it.

    I honestly believe the only reason suicide and assistant suicide is illegal, is because to many people would do it. I don’t know about you but I’m not one of the rich so my life isn’t good, compared to someone who is rich. So I feel my whole reason for life is to make richer people’s life more comfortable, at the cost of my Comfort and life. So if I was offered a for sure painless way to die I would do it, because I see no real reason to work my whole life just to die anyways I rather just skip all the shit and get it over now.

(There are many ways a humans can die. Many people find at least one. They do so, because they inherently can. It's their own life, no one else's. They should be allowed to end it if they and they alone desire to do so, for whatever reason or reasons they might have.)
