People will constantly evolve their morals and ethical decisions over time based on other interactions with people or life experiences. Discussion of Plato? Question 28 5 / 7.5 pts What is the difference between active and passive euthanasia? Is physician-assisted suicide more like active or passive euthanasia? Explain your reasoning. Your Answer: Active euthanasia is essentially death by overdose. As to passive euthanasia is medical equipment that is preventing the patient from dying is unplugged/removed to allow the sickness or disease or injury to kill the patient. Physician-assisted suicide is not the same as euthanasia in my opinion. Physician-assisted suicide is when a physician provides a means for death. In many cases its the patient that will administer the lethal medication. Euthanasia is where the physician directly performs the act of injecting the lethal medication. Physician-assisted suicide is more like active euthanasia Question 29 6 / 7.5 pts Do you think that voluntariness is morally important in euthanasia decisions? How important do you think it is? For example, do you think that it is so important that whatever a person requests ought to be done? Explain. Does your conclusion only regard the morality or also the legality of euthanasia? Your Answer: Voluntariness is important cause if the patient does not want to give up on live then the doctor should do everything possible to keep them alive and the same principle applies to if they no longer want to live. Now when following voluntariness the mental state of the person at time of stating voluntarism. From a doctors point of view a patient denying treatment for life threatening situations can be morally wrong but if the person is in the right state of mind then its the patients choice. What if this right conflicts with the rights of others? Quiz Score: 93 out of 100 [Show More]
