No, , it's shouldn't individuals is given the gift of life by God and God alone, and only Him can take it away, death is not an individual or collective action/decision of people but a order from God, the likes of Stephen Hawking and many more attest to this, life is sacred, and should be taken as such.

Clothes are made by man. Housing is made by man. Not by GOD! Maybe you should discard yours and live as GOD has intended. Naked and exposed to the elements.
If it's all in GOD's hands anyway, why don't you cross the streets with your eyes closed? Let HIM decide if you live er die, its al part of the divine plan anyway, right?!

It already is legal in the USSA (United Socialist States of America). I see it everyday in the medical profession. Don't kid yourself. If you don't want it to happen to you when you are incapacitated and unable to make your own decisions, you better have an ironclad legal document signed before it is too late. Otherwise, you better hope your next-of-kin likes you. That being said, I think it is humane to end needless suffering.

it should be legal because of this following reasons:
1. People have the right to die
2. People have the explicit right to choose.
3. Euthanasia is not immoral.
4. Euthanasia protects self-hood and human dignity.
5. Euthanasia does not harm to others.
6. Euthanasia is properly regulated.
7. Everyone has a right to a good death, therefore a good death must not be denied to those who want one.
8. Euthanasia does not shorten lifespans by as much as is portrayed.
9. Euthanasia saves lives.
10. The Hippocratic oath supports euthanasia.

I see no reason why someone should be left to continue to suffer on pain which at the end of the day may still die of the pain , it should be legalized and should also be approved by the victim involved before it will be carried out and moreover reputable laws should be used to guide this so that it can be done the right way and not just ending all life of those in pain as some can still get better.

We can't be too much judgemental for an issue that has many challenging subjectivity related to it. The discussion will have both the side, yes as well as no also the situation of the, environment, laws of the state and most important thing is ethical considerations has to kept on table before making any statement.
Ethically we can't calculate the value or contribution of a person to maintain his life saving expenditure or the cost benifit ratio. If we equate human life equally than we cannot make this legal. That means the XYZ, has equal right to live like the Staphen Halking did.
Practically the ethical issues can't work, we have to decide on the basis of contribution of the terminally ill patient, will the contributions of XYZ be equal to the life saving support he is put on. A hospitalized person needs the aminities equal to 100 poor, illiterate and hungry people. Isn't there ethical considerations human. If it is about human, isn't than an Indian, African or Afghanistani human?
Being in medical profession, as a doctor I have seen the real struggle of people in a hospital. If you check the real situation visit an neurological ward in Indian hospital and decide Euthanasia.
I think if the patient has a terminally ill condition and is on active machine support, he should be provided the Euthanasia support, that means we must draw away his life saving support. The "other ways" must not come to effect. The other ways I mean to say right to die, a normal person must not be allowed to make a decision of his life and the normal I mean a physically as well as physiologically.
I don't think right to die is a rational comment. I don't think it is moral too. If you are human you have to cope with situations you are put by nature. You need to adopt the situation.
Some people think of dignity, when you end your life by self satisfaction, where do the dignity lie.
I believe too in Euthanasia, only in cases of terminally ill diseases. The question may arise who will define the condition of terminally illness. If one is terminally ill today and we remove his life support tomarrow the cure is found. Isn't that injustice to him or her. For the collective good we may be proven wrong sometimes but these are exceptional situations and they will remain there.
In my conclusion I am in favor of Euthanasia but only in terminally ill patients and not with right to death..

Anything done in good faith that might help a person get free of his miseries should not be illegal.Euthanasia directly comes from Greek words"eu" meaning "good" and "thanatos"meaning" death" which means a good death.One should have a right to end his life if he feels that dying would be better than what he has to go through.For example, a brain dead person leads a life which has sufferings beyond measure.He is no better than a vegetable.So why to keep his sufferings if he is not intersted to live such a life?Dying once is far better than dying each moment .Rules and regulations regarding euthanasia are strict and it is done only in cases where it is necessary.It is not murder.So I don't think it should not be legalised as long as the laws regulating it are strict enough to avoid mishaps and help it to serve the proper purpose.

I believe that yes, euthanasia should be legal.
Many people would call it "selfish" choosing to end your own life. I beg to differ... I think the selfish are those who are demanding that the terminally ill patient be forced to live in pain for as long as they can possibly extend it.
I don't believe in euthanasia for those who are depressed and suicidal. Having been depressed and suicidal myself in the past, I likely would not have dared ask for such a thing even if it were an available option. Depression is private and something that one faces alone; the despair would not drive you to a doctor to ask for assisted suicide, in my opinion.
But I do believe that for those who are suffering - their pain, their agony, and their lives dragged out when they could finally be at peace - that there should be a way to end that suffering, at a time and place of their choosing with their loved ones by their side, and not interfering with the choice.

I hope that if I ever find myself seriously depressed for a prolonged period of time and contemplating suicide, I would try every option available to me to change my life for the better.If all fails, ending ones life should remain an option. We have little choice in arriving in this world but we sure should have the authority to end it!

That sounds lovely :) but many depressed people wouldn't be able to do those things.
When I was deeply depressed it was hard enough to simply get out of bed in the morning. You don't want to do anything, not even shower. Your mind feels like it has been zombied, you are in your own haze-filled world and it's so hard to focus. Sitting in the living room, your gaze constantly wonders over to the kitchen towards the chemicals hidden beneath the sink; there is bleach, cleaner, pesticides, etc under there. And the only thing stopping you from doing the deed, so to speak, is the fear of failure. Of waking up in hospital, your internal organs now ruined for life, because someone dared save you when you wanted it to end.
In that scenario - which I admit was my own though I never attempted to follow through - I supposed euthanasia would truly be a lovely option. Peace at last. But I'm not entirely sure a suicidal person could physically take themselves to the doctor and request their end. It's a huge feat just to finally request anti-depressants (which make you feel just as zombied, but numbs the other stuff)
(Sorry, this unexpectedly turned into a giant ramble! It's morning where I am and fesh-morning-caffeine has attacked my posting) :D
((Also; just want to clarify that I'm not longer depressed, but at ease with talking about the past))

Hi and good morning to you!
Depression indeed has a paralyzing effect. It's really terrible and I'm sorry you had to go through that. I'm also glad to read you'r no longer depressed.What factor or factors finally helped you out of your depressed stupor?

Good morning! :D
Honestly... I don't remember. I don't remember much of that time period at all. I've been sitting here trying to recall what helped, and I can't quite place a specific factor.
Actually... I think it was the birth control pill. That's when it all started. And when I stopped taking it, my hormones and emotions reverted to a normal human cycle, and things became clear again. Ten years of controlling medication designed to help the woman // Ten years of depression that increased in severity every year until I literally could cope no longer.
((But I've kind of digressed from the original topic, haha.))
But it goes to show that depression can be caused by any number of things, whether it's a chemical imbalance, a terrible burden in one's life, a medication that one may be taking, etc. And there is likely something that can be done to help relieve it/fix it without resorting to euthanasia in that instance.

It's interesting you mention birth control.
A lot of woman start taking birth control pills on a young age and you are not the first one I've heard say that it is a world of difference if you use them or not. It especially seems to be terrible for the libido. For some woman I've talked to it was quite te revelation as they could barely remember a time before taking them.
It doesn't seem to be common knowledge however. But maybe it just seems that way to me, being a man.

My family and I had personal experience how hard it is to decide on to continue the fight of my Papa against Lung Cancer or to just sign the paper that states that the doctor will no longer revive him whenever he experiences cardiac arrest again. It is only the machines that make my Papa live. At first, my Mama did not sign the paper because she saw that my Papa was still fighting despite all the tubes that are connected to him from his mouth to his nose and to his stomach. But when my Papa had another cardiac arrest, it was my Mama who stopped the doctor from reviving my Papa. We can really see in Papa's eyes that he is in deep pain and he is already tired. But he wants to fight for us his children. But we can no longer take on seeing him like that. So we all decided to set him free.
So based on my experience, should euthanasia be legal?
My answer is a big YES.
Because it hurts so much to see your loved one fight even if no matter what we do and no matter how long we wait, they will never be okay again. We are just lengthening their suffering. There are fights that are worth fighting for. But there are also fights that are worth surrendering for. Especially those fights that no matter what we do, we will never win.

So many reasons...Yes it should be legal. I don't understand why we make it so hard for people that are terminally ill and in constant suffering to die with grace and dignity. Let them leave their families with a good memory. It's inhumane to have them suffer.
Don't leave them with the pain of watching their loved one wither away and in so much pain it's unbearable or to leave them so far in debt it will take them years to pay it off.
Good topic @thepassenger. The downside...now we're going to have to dig out the popcorn and watch the battle with the religiously correct.

Even if euthanasia aims to kill for mercy, still Im not in favor of it because I still believe that since God give everything to us including our precious life, then no one has the power to take our life except the Creator. Only God has the ultimate power to take our life. As we pray to Him, that His will be done.
Euthanasia means mercy killing, but still it is killing and its in the Ten Commandments of God, that we shall not kill. If a person is dying or in pain, euthanasia is not a solution. God has its own plan, has its own reason why He let that person suffer. Maybe God wants that person to realize something. All we have to do to help that person is to pray. God knows whats best for us.

Sure, lull yourself into a false sense of accomplishment by praying for someone.
Praying is like masturbation, it only helps the one who prays and does nothing in the real world.
Don't get me wrong. I do think prayer has benefits, just like meditation. But don't be deluded into thinking your thoughts are all it takes to positively effect the world. It requires action too! And in some cases this means letting people decide for themselves when to choose to pull the plug on life!
Also, I don't understand how you can say that god knows what is best and still have the arrogance to pray to him in hopes of convincing him to change his divine plan. You're not making any sense!

To me I would say it should and it shouldn't. Euthanasia can be legal but it should be made use of in a serious condition.
Even though it eases stress and pain it's still a sin against God, but if the case is very critical I think God himself will understand

How much suffering could a person go on for an entire life? How much pain could someone suffer? How much agony could you take on for an entire life? I bet the answer for that is too much to even mention. But life keeps on going. My answer is No. Give a person a reason to fight. And a person in pain is whom the most in need of it. Never end life unless God takes it himself. Always remember that Life is worth fighting for.

Really?
Imagine you are in unbearable pain every moment of every minute of every single day for the rest of your life. Moving hurts, breathing hurts, the slightest touch from a loved one -- a kiss or hug -- inflicts so much pain you can't stand it. And all the while you are bound to your bed. You can't go outside or have any self-autonomy. every day is exhausting and sleep is impossible without heavy sedation. The painkillers are having less of an effect day by day and the little energy you have is all spent trying to cope with the enormous stress of this burden.
You don't even have the energy to carry a conversation with the people you love. Even the act of trying to consume food is pure torture.
Would you go on regardless? Would you live a happy life when the doctor comes in and forces a tube down your throat to infuse you with nutrients just so this life of suffering can continue?
What happens when we find the technology that will make it possible to extend life almost indefinitely?
Would you accept being forced to live in agony for a small eternity in that man made living hell!
Would you really?!

When someone is in a pain that can't hold anymore, many people decides to suicide. Euthanasia is for those who want to end their life but they can't...and sometimes there's nothing to do when a doctor says you won't be moving a centimeter for your entire life in a bed.

Euthanasia should be legal, yes!
No one chooses to enter this life but we can damn well choose when to exit it! Having autonomy over ones own body and deciding what happens to it should be your own prerogative always! As long as you'r not harming anyone else -- by which I don't mean the emotional grief we all feel when a loved one dies -- anyone should retain the right to end his or her own life, period!
To not give people the right to, after careful consideration, choose to leave this life behind is abhorrent, selfish and downright cruel!
Those that think a single book or claim to a celestial authority gives them the right to withhold death from anyone should read some more books...
...preferably some NON-FICTION!

Aren't we all killing ourselves slowly with what we feed our mind and body? We keep doing it our whole lives that when we get sick as a result we only have ourselves to blame. End the suffering.
To those who got sick not by choice, why should we prolong the agony? We can only endure as much as much. Can we still preserve life if that life is sucking away the life around? What if euthanasia is the divine intervention that we need? Can you hinestly say that you want to go through what the sick person is going through?
Yes to euthanasia but it should be regulated and not to be done recklessly.

I wanna say "it depends"; but that would be stupid. There is no gray area here. Nothing in the middle. No safe plays. So I'm gonna say "yes". Euthanasia should be legal. We are not talking about the holiness or the religious part in here. We're talking about the legal part. The legality of the subject matter. Legally speaking, it is not wrong. Everyone has their own rights. We can always say that we wanna protect people from hurting themselves. But what if living is hurting them? Mercy killing can help. Euthanasia can help. So it should be legalized. Period.

Hello my dear @thepassenger, , euthanasia is a difficult process to determine by family members who are responsible for deciding at a certain time in life whether it can be done or not, the person who is in a process more than all vegetative, or a case extreme of illness, personally I consider that it should not be legal, why?

I guess it depends on a country's view of life? Some country perhaps wants euthanasia to be legalize, some does not. And ssome country does if and only if their fellow wants it to be legalize. Others like a christian community obviously wont allow such.
In connection, i guess everyone deserves the right to end their life or not for they're the one who lives and lived that life. But again, it's a given life that must be lived and must be enjoyed while breathing.
I guess euthanasia is just good for those people who are sick or in disease and wants to end their life faster than their sickness actually do.
Well, to sum up my opinion, either of the yes or no is my answer. There are actually reasons, good reasons to legalize or not to legalize such for we humans are just the ones who have the right to ask any of ourselves if we want to die now or continue living. Hope you consider my answer :)
If you prefer a definite answer between yes and no, well, i cant give specific answer for even i myself is in favor and not favor to euthaniasia as to be legalize or not.
Overall, its just my opinion, no intention to hurt or cause fire to someone. Thanks and have a good day :)

In current years, there has actually been a lot of talk relating to assisted suicide, the method of finishing a life in a pain-free method. Assisted suicide supporters call for that mercy killing ought to be legislated as it assists helpless individuals to finish their suffering. Apart from this, exercising mercy killing has a whole lot of unsafe and also unwanted end results.
Assisted suicide, which originates from the Greek word EU Thanatos implying sensible or excellent fatality, is the mindful act of finishing a life by keeping essential therapy (passive assisted suicide) or carrying out a treatment that straight as well as swiftly creates fatality (energetic assisted suicide). Checked out by some as useful, both easy and also energetic mercy killing is taken into consideration unethical, wicked, as well as in the exact same group as abortion-- a murder.

I guess it should be legalize with restrictions. Indeed life is precious and we don't have a right to end it, however it is also not good to see someone suffering when he/she intends to end the suffering. So suggest It will be legalize but with proper medical procedure also it must have consent to all people who has right to vote, and also the patient itself intends to.

Yes, there should be decent rules and safeguards to prevent accidents and wrongdoing. I agree with your reasoning.

Well my dear @yocritico. On the one hand you say it is ones own problem if something happens to them when crossing the streets with closed eyes while on the other hand stating you shouldn't take action if your life has been turned into such misery only death can bring release. If you can't see the hypocrisy in that I guess it's no surprise you can't have a civil conversation and instead feel the need to resort to discourteous conduct. I bid you good day!

This is the short meaning of Euthanasia
the painless killing of a patient suffering from an incurable and painful disease or in an irreversible coma.
In my openion Euthanasia is not a legal so i cont support this.

Yes I think so only for certain in things eg incurable cancer, certain diseases, dementia, etc. They must take certain tests to make sure they are sane. If they are diagnosed properly they can decide when they want to die . As they can be in horrible pain I know how they feel as im dealing with the effects of tetanus its a complicated story. But the person must make it legal before it happens as for example people could kill them if they are in there in the will for financial gain. I know so many people who go through different diseases and they are over it and are dying slowly and in lots of pain and that would be kind for them to put them out of there misery.

to converse, we chat, friend, when you want, but do not get in touch with my heavenly father. I am jealous of him and I get upset fast if you doubt me you can tell me what you want but with him I can not tolerate it and seen great miracles of people They are almost dead and they come back to life, that's why I tell you that GOD has the last word, excuse me, if I offended you, brother, I do not know much, you know Spanish, help me to win the sbd

@yocritico
Luckily I'm not easily offended. And i accept your apologie kindly!
But I do wonder why you consider the topic of god off limits? Surely we must be able to have a polite conversation on the subject, no?
If you'd like people to see your replies you should click the reply button in the thread and not in the Original Post. Just a tip.
;-)
Good luck in the contest!

Hi @yocritico, don't worry about it. We all had to start anew here on Steemit sometime so it's no problem that you are stil learning how to use everything. In the image below you can see exactly where you need to click in a conversation if you'd like to have your reply become part of that sub-thread.
And that's it. Now you've replied to a comment within a thread to create a sub-thread. The person you replied to will now receive a notification of this for easy communication.
Why do you think not believing in a god automatically means that a person doesn't believe in anything? I believe in a lot of things.
For if I question my life and doubt my views about reality I can not at the same time doubt that doubt! (Please don't hesitate te re-read the previous sentence. It took me a while to wrap my head around that one too!)
And I believe all these things because there is good evidence to support those beliefs. Not because some ancient text or priest tells me there is some kind of celestial dictator that commands me to do this on bad evidence or else I risk being tormented in hell for ever.
Oh, and I must love him too, or else!

I respectfully disagree. You may of course believe as you wish.
My opinion is formed by the evidence I see around me and there is none that convinces me it is very likely that there is a god.
And if after my death I'm proven to be mistaken, I'll ask god why he allows so much suffering in this world. Why he let's innocent people starve or wither away while some evil men appear to have all the luck in the world.
I'll ask him why he created man imperfect and than demanded of his creation to be perfect only to punish them by throwing man out of the garden of Eden while he must've known beforehand man would eat the fruit of knowledge.
I'll ask him why he insists on us believing in him and him alone based on poor evidence and demanding from us to love him and promising us an eternity of torture in hell if we don't comply.
How are these qualities of a caring and loving god I ask you? They seem more to be the ravings of a mad man.
I believe god is created by man and not visa versa. And that this idea of god has been used as an excuse to exert power over other people trough centuries. I personally am done with that. I'm done with god. I don't believe. And that doesn't make me a bad person. And I encourage anyone who has doubts about the story that is spun by priests and prophets to question those tales and to look further. Religion stifles critical thinking and I say cast it off like you cast off the believe in Santa Claus, the Tooth-fairy and unicorns. Oh wait, scrap that last parts. Unicorns are real! As for the rest, be free of that mental prison for it is nothing but a detriment to yourself and to society.
With respect,

Coming from a country where euthenasia is legal and while working in health care I say it should be 100% legal.
The rules for it should be strickt ofcourse, but having the final word on how your final days should go..that feels like ultimate freedom to me.
If you are terminally ill with no chance of recovery..and suffering unbearable pains every single day. It should be your right to end your suffering

Yes it should be legal, with the appropriate safeguards. Often the 'problems' that have been brought up, have already been solved or are best straw man arguments.
If you don't believe that euthanasia is good for you. Don't use it, but don't proscribe your beliefs on others.
