To die on your own terms a right?


McGrath seeks suspension of right-to-die ruling

AG McGrath hopes to stop anyone or at least postpone people from using their right to die. He plans to prolong the suffering of terminally ill Montanans who wish to end their lives with medical assistance.

I quess he doesn't want anyone going to hell. Becasue of course in the bible it says suicide is wrong. In most cases it is, but in this situation it's called mercy. As usual the religious try use the bible too determine what is moral and what is not, when in fact it is far from giving good advice.

This may sound callous, but do people realize how expensive it is to die in the U. S. of A.? Why should a dying person pay big bucks to a hospital to keep them alive as long as possible against their will. That's callous and immoral.

Yes, but there is more than money at stake, there is also compassion for people whose suffering cannot be relieved. I am proud to live in Oregon, the only state that has assisted suicide, but I would gladly trade my pride for the inclusion of other states in the list.
