Explanation / Answer
Answer:
According to my view assisted suicide should not be permissible because it is both unethical and immoral
According to supporters of euthanasia, every individual has a right to die with respect or dignity and avoid unbearable pain. He should allow others to manage it for him if he is unable to do their own because it is our own body and we may allow doing what we want to do with it in order to reduce pain and suffering. Banning of euthanasia is both immoral and unethical.
On the other hand, opponent argues that our life is a gift of God and no one has the right to take it.
Another argument is that legalizing euthanasia can create it a tool of murder because people may abuse it.
Hence, it should not be allowed to take life of an individual in any circumstances.
