when I thought about a topic for my last presentation in pronunciation class the first idea that jumped into my mind was of euthanasia. It like an electricity shock. Either deliberately or unintentionally, the issue becomes one of my concerns. According to the Greek definition of Euthanasia, it means “ good death”. Originally, the term refers to painless and peaceful death as used to happen in comfortable surroundings. Nowadays, for some reasons that I don’t know the word become used to refer to the situation when someone ends up the life of another in order to cope with his pain and sufferings. Both usages for the term throughout the history sound contradictory for me. The contradiction does not surprise me because they were the Greeks, their contemporaries, and the ancient people in general who built up the bases for ethics and morals. It is only with the modern man that ethics have become chaotic issue.




In the case of euthanasia, Dr. Jack Kivorkian paved the way to such a trouble. Some people call him Dr,Death, yet, doesn’t look like the appropriate name for someone who dare to kill people. He and his suporte4 might argue that their message is purely humane. First, it provides a relief of the chronic and extreme pain of the patient”Proponents also argue that legalizing euthanasia/assisted suicide is a necessary "insurance policy" that will ensure that no one dies in painful agony or unremitting suffering”. Second, it provides a relief from medial funding that will not bring any positive result. Lastly, it is another form of freedom of choice.






Nevethelless, have you ever thought about any similarity between euthanasia and bomb suicide? I believe that they share a same goal as both of them are meant to end the life of someone else. In deed, a suicide is always a suicide whether within the assistance of somebody, individually, or collaboratively. The similarities extend to reach the physical and the mental status of the people who accept to be killed. In the case of euthanasia, most of the patients are desperate, unable to think appropriately, and hate life. Similary, according to a study pub;ished on wekepedia, most of suicide attackers suffer from spycholologicalor mental problems and are desperate as well”One initial reaction to contemporary suicid One initial reaction to contemporary suicide bombing was to assume that the bombers were motivated by despair, and likely to come from a poor, neglected segment of society.the study adds that around “ 80% of the suicide attackers had some kind of physical or mental disability”.




Thus, is there anybody ion the earth who can tell what will happen eactly tomorrow. Even for weather forecast, despite all the techinological devices they invented for the purposes, sometime it is still hard to tell. To put it another way, who can assume that tomorrow will not be a different day in the life of the patrient? Who can assume that tomorrow ther will not be a change in the life of the suicide aatcker? Who can assume that tomorrow is not going to be brighter for everybody on earth? To conclude, as long as there is hope life is always better than death.
