The term ‘euthanasia’ has become synonymous with killing someone who no longer wants to live: death at one’s own request. In the case of euthanasia, we end the life that God has given us in custody: we put an end to something that does not belong to us.
Instead of helping someone to love and respect the life given by God, that person is assisted in ending that life. Performing euthanasia violates the ancient oath of the Greek physician Hippocrates. A human being never has the right to end his own life, and that is why euthanasia is always wrong.
