 It all depends on the circumstances. Euthanasia can be an act of love if the person is in serious pain and Jesus taught that we should love our neighbour. It is the person's own choice on whether or not they die. It can stop someone's suffering. People have the right to die in dignity instead of living in pain. People being kept on life support who have no chance of coming back alive are taking away resources from people who have a chance in living.

We are all made in God's likeness, we are his children adn therefore are lies are all sacred. People change their mind, they may have decided they didn't want to be euthanised but are no longer able to communicate to people that they've changed their wish. There is always a point to suffering. The Ten Commandments tells us that murder is wrong. Life shouldn't be taken away by a human as it isn't their place to choose who lives and dies. Only God can choose who dies and he knows when it is someone's time to die.

Euthanasia is illegal in Britain, however withdrawing artificial nutrition and hydration is not illegal.Euthanasia is, however, legal in other countries such as Switzerland and they provide special places for people to go and they are assisted in killing themselves.
