19. Interview with a church minister
※ I agree to passive mercy killing, but not the active one!
Passive method usually used only when the doctor is sure that the patient is unconsciousness and cannot be treated.
This can release the government funds use on medical service, also can give the family of the patient a chance to be release.
I think that the active one is the same as suicide, because they use a non-natural method to end the life.
Life is a present which the god give us.
Why don't we give love and support to them?
