Two Pastors in a Pub

Episode 45: Is Assisted Dying OK?


Listen Later

If I am in real pain with a terminal illness, isn't it right that I should be allowed to end my suffering? Isn't this simply compassion? Why should we prolong pain? Doesn't God want suffering to end?
But if we allow this, will it start to put pressure on people to end their lives so that they are not a bother to the living? If I have a disability, will I be asked to end my life? 
Who should supervise this process? Aren't doctors meant to preserve life?
If God created life - who should be allowed to end it?

Tom & Matt are back in the pub (The Ship Inn at Brimscombe) with weird drinks wrestling with this challenging and emotional subject. Join them for an impassioned discussion.
