I absolutely addressed your position.

In many cases when someone is very ill they don’t have the ability to commit suicide by themselves. They need the help of someone else. At that point, it is no longer suicide, but murder.

Again, you can choose to kill yourself if you want and no one can stop you if you’re determined, but you have no right to ask anyone else to supply the “weapon” or assist you in carrying out your desires.

This is what you call asking others for help, others who have the right to say yes or no.

"You do not have the right to impose your desire to die on the consciences of others."

I pointed out the error in your comment, but you ignored it. What is it about being terminally ill or extremely weak that would not allow you to make the request? Do you think the person will get out of bed and beat you up? Is it okay for the person to ask for pain killer if they are in pain or might that violate your belief also. Wouldn't want to impose on others.

I would add to your comment about the right to request help. I guess an advanced medical directive to allow someone else to decide to "pull the plug" would be wrong in your belief that we should not impose upon others.

By the way, what is the source of the right to be free from imposition?

I'm out. Last word to you.

Best wishes!
