In the realm of we can't have gay marriage cos that will lead to bestiality orgies on the streets. Get a grip people.
Personally I find it ironic that any decently emphatic human being wouldn't hesitate to put down a dying pet or horse yet wouldn't even consider this tightly regulated and monitored mercy for a fellow human being, be him a child or an adult.
Not all stories get a happy ending. Heck these stories don't even get a happy start. Must the tragedy of these kids really be compounded by the fact we keep them forcibly coiled to this world as long as medically possible no matter the circumstances? Must a child really linger on in excruciating pain and die in agony just because of our sensibilities and moral indignation? I'd treat my dog better then watch him suffer terribly for months before the inevitable end.
Values, moral values are not the absence of courage, resilience, thoughtfullness, empathy and a stride to fight, or rather they are not a void of all that makes us human. We are turning into heartless creatures that value nothing because we fear suffering, we fear fighting and love our complacent selves and our hedonistic pleasures. Where i work at people fight to very last breath, they fight and die with a fire in their eyes. They die with meaning in their lives, not through an injection because they were scared.
You're right tho, i wouldn't let a dog suffer, because a dog doesn't know a dimension that surpasses common suffering, a human dog does not value a human soul.
To sum myself up, i don't agree with gay marriage because lust doesn't mean love and two men having sex while on paper "being together" doesn't mean they're married. If a child suffers doesn't mean it needs to be put down like an animal because we think like is just happy joy flowers and pleasures upon pleasures. Life means hardship, suffering, pain and overcoming that with endurance, bravery, determination and courage as to give life a meaning and to call us humans!

It will be the same for children, now people who used to go to jail for killing their children won't anymore thanks to opportunities given with euthanasia. They call it "progress", after all...
Euthanasia on kids = adults giving themselves the right of life or death on an innocent being. While on the other hand, I suppose you are one of those against death penalty for criminals right?
Did you guys even read up on the rigorous vetting and precondition needed for euthanasia to be considered? And the emphasis of the childs true will being manifested on multiple occasions and tested thoroughly.Malx wrote:
