Assisted Suicide: a look at the issues

Recently the Catholic Union of Great Britain hosted a panel discussion on the upcoming parliamentary bill that seeks to legalise 'assisted dying' in England and Wales. The Evangelical Alliance has also been very active in presenting Christian moral arguments against the bill.  

Below are three links.
 
The first is the Evangelical Alliance's summary of the ethical objections to assisted suicide and the compelling reasons for rejecting the bill. The second is the discussion, hosted by the Catholic Union, which was uploaded to YouTube. The third is the transcript of the speech made by Doctor Matthew Doré, Palliative Care Consultant at the Northern Ireland Hospice and Belfast Trust, demolishing the arguments offered in support of euthanasia.
