Is Euthanasia a sin? Should it be legal? What do you feel about the topic?

that's a very debatable question. i think the answer is different for everyone because it involves legal issues and moral issues. i don't feel it's up to ma to decide for God what constitutes a sin. should it be legal? no. it starts a precedent that we don't want to go there. anyway, i'm an RN. doctors and nurses are trained to help the dying go as peacefully, painlessly and with as much dignity as possible. it takes a lot of character to endure to the end. i admire that kind of courage.

This is a hard question to answer. I'm with it but against it at the sametime.

I do not personally beleive in euthanansia. If I had a terminal disease or injury I would want to be sedated and/or given pain relief. I do the same thing for my pets.

This one is easy. Euthanasia is fun and nice. And like Jesus said, "when in doubt, kill it."

I had to sit with my Grandmother while she was in the process of dying. It was grusome. She has a pacemaker and as the numbers on the monitors dropped and it appeared she was going.... the damn thing would shock her back to life.

It was horrible to watch and there was nothing to do but watch her suffer. I pleaded with the nurse to do something, but they can't take that kind of action. G just had to wait until the batteries were too low to work any longer.

I would have rather had a way to ease her pain, instead of just watching it and praying for some relief for her.

I don't think it's a sin. If somebodys last wish is to have you end their suffering then I don't think anybody should feel guilty for doing it. It would be hard but I imagine a dying wish would be hard to say no to.
