“It really is an important issue for us to contemplate before the question comes because right now, one-third of the population of the United States lives in a jurisdiction where assisted suicide is legal.” - Discovery Institute

One of my brother's church members did this a couple of months ago. My brother found about it and tried to talk him out of it, but the guy was so depressed he went through with it. I think one of his sons sat with him through the process. It's a wicked thing

NewTwo minds...

Thu, 11/05/26

I’m of two minds on this one. Be there to support them? No. But if it’s someone I love, would I go to try to talk them out of it as Don’s brother did above? It would depend on the circumstances, but yes, I would want to try. If they go through with it anyway, I would leave when it started, so it would be clear I didn’t support it. As Don said, this is a great evil.
