TOPIC FIVE: EUTHANASIA & LAW

I think that the euthanasia is a complex concept that doesn't concern only the law. It understands the religion, the politic and above all the ethic.

In our country the euthanasia is illegal and is considered homicide. The Church has a very influential role about this subject and claims that the human life is inviolable.

I think that a man must die with dignity and I considers unfair to let a person to uselessly suffer.
