First of all we should say that euthanasia is the act of killing someone painlessly, especially to relieve suffering from an incurable illness. It is also called as mercy killing. We should say that today Euthanasia is a legal practice in some countries. For example it is legal in Britain. There are many different points of view on this problem. Some people think that it’s almost impossible to accept it. Some people think it should be legal and widespread because there are many situations when it is really necessary. For example In medical practice there are different situations when it is the only way. And very often euthanasia activists have dropped references to terminal illness, replacing them with such phrases as "hopelessly ill," "desperately ill," "incurably ill," "hopeless condition," and "meaningless life." According to the following text we can single out two main questions. These are Why should euthanasia be allowed? And why it should be forbidden? Those who are for it argue that our modern, civilized society should admit people to die without dignity and without pain and if people can not manage it on their own, others can help to do it. This approach means to allow people to live as they want. Those who are against euthanasia and among them are religious opponents think that our life is given by God and only God should decide whether the person should live or not. They also believe that it seems inhuman and our life is wonderful thing. More over we should add the following thing legalization of euthanasia can fundamentally undermine the relationships between elderly or dependent relatives and their families. It also can fundamentally undermine the basis of trust between doctors and patients that is at the heart of effective medicine. Of course this question is very difficult to answer. I believe that still euthanasia should be banned. First and foremost it contradicts our morality. Euthanasia is a rejection of the importance and value of human life. With euthanasia no one's life is being saved people’s life is only taken.
