Right to die or right to fight (euthanasia)

1. Who introduced or suggested euthanasia? 5. When was the first time a patient was euthanised? I couldn't find out who introduced it and when was the first time exactly, but According to the historian N. D. A. Kemp, the origin of the contemporary debate on euthanasia started in 1870. Euthanasia  is known to have been debated and practiced long before that date.  2. Where are the areas in which euthanasia is illegal / legal?  Human euthanasia is legal in the Netherlands , Belgium, Colombia, and Luxembourg. Assisted suicide is legal in Switzerland, Germany, Japan, Canada, and in the US states of Washington, Oregon, Colorado, Vermont, Montana, Washington DC, and California. 3. What is the difference between suicide and euthanasia? This is a very difficult question to answer because the answer differs depending on one's perspective. personally, I don't think it's suicide if the pacient has terminal illness, as we said in the presentation we made in our class.

Not many people answered this survey but here is the results! http://www.surveymonkey.com/results/SM-CCSZD6Q6/

We had a presentation in our class about euthanasia. We were assigned to creat an NPO related to the topic and present it as if we were recruiting our class members to join us. We found an NPO called "Terminal ill right to die"(TIRD). Our concept is that terminal ill people should have the right to get euthanized but non-terminal ill people shouldn't have the right to get euthanized. Terminal ill people should have the right to end their physical pain. However more and more non-terminal ill people are trying to get euthanized because of stress and depression but life is such an important thing that we shouldn't give up on it so easily. There are always ways to solve any kind of problems but death. We should fight to protect more lives and care more about people. Our project is to collect signatures from people, show our will and make a stricter low for those who wants to get euthanized. Our goal is to decrease the number of non-terminal ill people who gets euthanized

1, Why are people for euthanasia?   Arguments based on rights People have an explicit right to die A separate right to die is not necessary, because  our other human rights imply the right to die Death is a private matter and  if there is no harm to others, the state and other people have no right to interfere  (a libertarian argument) Practical arguments It is possible to regulate euthanasia Death is a private matter and  if there is no harm to others, the state and other people have no right to interfere  (a libertarian argument) Allowing people to die may free up scarce health resources  (this is a possible argument, but no authority has seriously proposed it) Euthanasia happens anyway (a utilitarian or consequentialist argument) Philosophical arguments Euthanasia satisfies the criterion that moral rules must be universalisable Euthanasia happens anyway (a utilitarian or consequentialist argument) Is death a bad thing? Arguments about death itself Is death
