Even if the question is too broad and has no context, I think that legalization of euthanasia is negation of moral and ethical principles on which humanity is based and the terms physician-assisted suicide and murder are synonyms. Legalized euthanasia can be abused by government, doctors and even relatives. It will become a cost-effective replacement of palliative care and medical research for terminal diseases will also decrease. In addition people who are not going to support their ill relatives and consider them as a burden might choose euthanasia rather than palliative care. Side: No it will be chaos
From having worked with elderly people and delivered meals to them for several years I've seen people who were of sound mind but in too much pain to talk other than a few words with moans and gasps of pain in between them. I've seen people who were depressed because they had no family that cared about them and who had very limited mobility. I've seen people dying of cancer. Would you want your mother or grandmother to live the last few years of her life in pain and depression? Probably not. Physician assisted suicide could end the suffering of these people, and on another note, it would also reduce the amount of money and resources being used to keep these people alive when they don't really want to be.

Most definitely. I am approaching 65 and what I do with my body is my choice not church or state. I will do it assuming I have my sanity in another 15-20 years( depending on my health it maybe sooner. I don't have a problem with those who don't believe in it then don't do it. Too many laws decide what & where, how & when the individuals decide their own future. If you're religious then as you say God will judge whether it was a crime. As an atheist I am doomed to hell according to the Bible, the Koran and most religions. Side: Yeah it should be
