Euthanasia should not be legalized

Euthanasia is mercy killing or good death. It can help some patients to have a happy death. Although many people in this world agree to legalize euthanasia, I strongly disagree with issue because of many reasons. Firstly, euthanasia is about taking control over life. We can’t control other’s life. Secondly, it is against the teaching of all religions. Thirdly, all human lives have equal value.

We can not control others’ life because every life has its freedom. Everybody can choose to be everything and go ahead with the dreams. You can not make a decision for anyone or control life and death. Although someone might be very sick, that person should have a chance to live. No one should decide when he/she should live or when he/she should die. You can not choose their death. Death is a natural loss. Euthanasia is ending life intentionally.


Secondly, it is against teaching of all religions such as Catholic, Islam, Buddhism and Judaism. All believe that Euthanasia is wrong. Catholics believe that “God is the creator human. You can not choose to end human life because you did not create it. Who dies or lives is up to only God to decide. Muslims believe that Allah decide death and birth. Buddhism believes that the right way or action for a human is not to kill human and animals. Therefore every religious teaching states that Euthanasia is wrong!

Lastly, all human life has equal value. Although you are a doctor, police, teacher, etc, everybody has different assignment but equal role in this world. Every assignment has its importance that is of equal value. Life is also the same. Although some people are rich and some people poor but everybody wants to be a good man. Nobody wants to be a bad man. You can not choose tell who is right or wrong and can not choose who should live or die because you have one life that you must value!

In conclusion, euthanasia should not be legalized. We can’t control other’s life because everybody has freedom of life. Euthanasia is against the teaching of all religions. The most important is all human lives have equal value. Therefore, Euthanasia is WRONG!
