Assisted suicide exists in Holland and I think Belgium for those who want it and can pay for it. Most people do not, but the option is there. I disapprove, very strongly, but I don’t have to live in the bodies and minds of the people who do want it.

This is far worse. Going against the direct, stated wishes of the patient (in either direction, and assuming the patient is in full possession of their faculties), to me, is not just a crime, but a sin and directly contrary to both the Hippocratic Oath and God’s law.

No I meant, euthanasia as “assisted suicide” without the patients consent.
