Logical Inconsistencies In The Law Of Euthanasia, Matthew M. Pustay

Matthew M. Pustay
In American jurisprudence the subject of assisted death is one that evokes strong feelings from people on both sides of the argument. In addition to being a legal issue, this discussion is closely tied to morality, personal politics and religion. Herein, this paper will show that based on the current American jurisprudence and standards of medical practice, there is a fundamental incoherency both morally and logically in the arguments opposing the practice of voluntary active euthanasia.
