________________ resources & deliberately treating intention to kill as irrelevant. Money can always buy life. Saving resources almost everyone who spends money on anything other than such resources is deciding to kill & killing. 1)Decision that particular individuals life will come to an end would be taken in good faith. 2) Decision to bring an individuals life to an end 3) Decision executing a choice or intention to terminate life. Demand of Euthanasia is wrong for some as it involves the frustration of critical interests, but because it is simply a form of tyranny an attempt to control the life of a person who has his/her own autonomous views about how that life should go. The evil of tyranny does not require explication in terms of the nature of sanctity of life but rather in terms respect for person & their autonomy. Why it is wrong to admister pain killing drugs for the purpose of relieving pain & no way intending to kill but knowing that the dosage is liable to kill someone who might otherwise recover from their illness.

To consider whether & in what circumstances actions that have as their intention or a likely consequence the shortening of another person's life may be justified on the grounds that they accord with that person's wishes or that person's best interest. Passive Euthanasia is allowing an incurably ill patient to die eventhough medical intervention would postpone the death. While in voluntary Euthanasia deliberate action is taken to shorten an incurably ill patients 127 Jain Education International For Personal & Private Use Only www.jainelibrary.org
