Question

Is it right to kill the one you love in order to save them?

Answer 1

Oh you mean like Andrea Yates? NO!

Answer 2

Define 'save'

I would say there is no time when killing someone would save them though..  are you thinking about sending them to heaven or something crazy like that?

Answer 3

no!

in ethics, its wrong!

in the rule of God, it is wrong!

and for me, it is something that must be thought very critically, although i am a medical practitioner, i am against that.

Answer 4

No, but if they are a bulb, you can dig them up and store them over the winter.  If they are a flower, you can cut them and bring them inside to enjoy their beauty more personally.  

Well, this IS the garden forum, silly, what did you expect?

Answer 5

I wouldn't and still to her no matter what happen. I would be there cause I know that is what she needs the most.

Answer 6

Yes it is, it depends on what though. How would killing them save them- you should be specific.

Answer 7

NO

Answer 8

If you mean to spare them unbearable increasing pain from an incurable illness that will only get worse. Absolutely YES.

Physicians do it all the time but they make you sign a “Do Not Resuscitate Order (DNR)” – which of course makes it LEGAL and therefore ethical in their eyes. Otherwise a DNR would not exist in a hospital setting.

Don’t get me started.

If physicians absolutely believed in their Hippocratic Oath, they would not under ANY circumstances allow a person to die without doing everything in their power to stop it. Yet they hide behind a DNR to allow someone to die which is contrary to the Oath they take.

Physicians also wouldn’t treat patients as poorly as they do.

In the last 25 years I have had an uncountable number of friends and family members in hospitals or nursing homes for one reason or other. The MAJORITY of physicians and clinicians are cold, heartless and could give a c**p about the patient. It’s a job, like any other job. Otherwise they would accept salaries comparable to teachers for example – who take care of children most of the day and don’t get nearly as much pay as they deserve.

Yea, I know, student loans, insurance – bull sh*t – physicians are in it for the money and could care less if you dropped dead. The first question they ask you is if you have insurance or can pay out of pocket. They use their student loan/insurance saga even after they retire!

I am not going to respond, nor do I care about any rebuttal to my OPINION.
