During my philosophy class, we had a conversation about Euthanasia. As I was doing my one page paper about an article I read, " Active and Passive form of Euthanasia" by James Rachels, I started to think about what I would do in a situation like that.
72% of the US population is in favor of Euthanasia. but it's only legal in 3 states. I think I'm a part of the 72% because I rather die than suffer from an immense pain. There are a lot of moral issues involved in the progress. I just cannot imagine myself suffering from a terminal illness and go through everything. I hope my family will make the same decision for me if I'm unconscious. Nowadays, there are forms you can fill in for when you're in that kind of position. Of course I hope I'll never have to suffer that much, but you never know how your life will turn out.
