Euthanasia
[ send me this paper ]
A 9 page research paper that examines the ethical issues associated with the issue of euthanasia, which are frequently addressed in contemporary society due to the fact that modern medical innovation has made it possible to prolong life in situations where, in previous eras, death would have been swift and inevitable. As this suggests, euthanasia debates are often associated with the discussions of the legality and morality of physician-assisted suicide. The following discussion of the ethics of euthanasia will consider both sides of this debate, pro and con, as well as how this issue can be regarded from various ethical perspectives, with a particular emphasis on Australian experience and law.

Euthanasia from the Christian Perspective
[ send me this paper ]
A 10 page paper examining how the Christian needs to perceive euthanasia. King David, the man after God’s own heart, wrote in Psalm 139: “All the days ordained for me were written in your book before one of them came to be” (v. 16). This is a comforting verse when lamenting the untimely death of a loved one, but it also can be seen as speaking directly to the issue of euthanasia. It is God who creates us, it is God who gives us life. It also should be God who decides when that life ends. Bibliography lists 9 sources.
