Active Euthanasia: Preferable To Passive Euthanasia

Abstract: 4 pages in length. To be entirely autonomous, one must also possess the moral and legal authority to take one's own life; however, contemporary society stops short of this specific aspect of a self-governing existence and imposes strict limitations upon a person's desire to take his or her life within the context of medically-related circumstances. Euthanasia in any form, according to Rachels (1975), fails to support the very foundation of any moral canon, no matter if the intent is pure. Bibliography lists 4 sources.
