              2. Against legalising
                1. It is unnecessary due to the great advances in palliative care in hospices and by Macmillan nurses
                  1. If the patient is unable to communicate we do not know if they want to die
                    1. We cannot know how we will feel about things in the future
                      1. The weeks and months leading up to the death of a loved one are as important for relatives to offer each other support and starting to adapt to that person not always being there

                                1. God gave humans the right to make decisions but there is a limit. To take life in this way is to play God.
                                  1. It breaks the 6th commandment - do not kill
                                    1. The weak and vunerable who can't speak for themselves deserve special protection
                                    2. CHRISTIAN
                                      1. Life is sacred, but not absolutely.Quality of life is also important
                                        1. Terrible suffering and loss of dignity are not what God wants for people
