One of this kind of rebellion is euthanasia in other words merciful killing or mercy death. On this article, I brought forth why euthanasia is wrong and sin against God. http://koti.phnet.fi/petripaavola/euthanasia.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not for man to decide when his life should end - we don't have that authority, only God does! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When death is enevitable and all that remains is suffering and pain I'll take the low ground. We shoot horses don't we? Yes I know we are not horses. The point being is we have more compassion for animals than our fellow man Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually, Obama wants us to eat them...I'll pass You think there is compassion for animals? I guess you have not seen the millions of photos of dogs and other animals deliberately starved, tortured, and neglected. If you wish to make a case for 'the low ground' as you put it, perhaps you should not use animals as an example. Most animals that are put down would rather live. There are too many dogs and cats because people are irresponsible and do not neuter their pets. Animlas that are slaughtered for consumption are often suffering greatly and in terrible fear before the 'merciful' release of death Of course you are free to decide your own demise but that is not God's desire for people.

I dont believe animals have reasoning which they would need in order to look at a situation and be afraid of what they think is going to happen.

Guest Posted May 13, 2012 Share Posted May 13, 2012 It's a personal choice, it may not be your choice and that's cool, every situation is different. As for Christians, we are forgiven our sins - past, present, and future. No spiritual death here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest LadyC Posted May 13, 2012 Share Posted May 13, 2012 here's something to ponder.... when an animal is suffering and there is no cure, euthenasia is encouraged. but when a human is suffering and there is no cure, euthenasia is a criminal act. we can all sit here an judge euthenasia to be wrong or not wrong, but there is no scripture, IMO, that indicates that medical assistance to end one's suffering in that way is any more "wrong" than using any other medical intervention. i know that my father suffered for three years before he finally died. i don't know why God allowed him to continue living, if you could call that living. but He did allow it, and i won't question why. but.... if someone gets cancer and, for whatever reason, does not get chemotherapy or whatever other treatments are available, God allows them to suffer. if someone gets heart disease and needs a transplant but doesn't get it, God allows them to suffer. if someone gets shot and a doctor doesn't take the bullet out, God allows that person to suffer. perhaps the reason God allows a terminally ill patient to suffer is because those whom HE has given the authority to end their suffering haven't been permitted by law to do so. i'm a wuss. i hope when i die it's quick and painless. and if it can't be quick and painless, then i sure hope laws have been passed by that time to allow me to die with dignity at a time of my choosing. don't think i wouldn't consult God about it, i most certainly would. but frankly, i can't imagine my loving heavenly Father telling me "tough beans, you have to suffer a few more years." go ahead, stone me. i'm sure there is at least ONE person here who will agree with me, even if they won't admit it.
