Assisted suicide anyone?



Euthanasia is a topic we try to avoid but when someone like this aged scientist insisted on it the story forces us to return to this topic once more.

I noticed from the comments left on Facebook, those who are not adherents of any religion are solidly for this option to end their lives. A few pointed out the family experience of how a very old relative had begged to die.

Those who have religious faith typically have a shallow understanding of this issue. They often just mouthed what their religious teachers had taught them. Unless they deepen their faith I don't think they have sufficient conviction to choose one way or the other except the social pressure they are getting whilst remaining in faith.

In future I expect more to lean toward assisted suicide
