Well I can only give you my twist cause I was around during Roe Wade. It was a question of choice of a woman have a right to choose reproduction. How they deal with their choice is theirs. As for the death camps this was not a choice it was imposed as upsetting as both are they are in now ways the same. As for the right to die, well again faced with modern medical things it really is about quality of life. I lost my father 3 months ago a massiave brain hemorage went quick. I got to him within 24 hrs and machines kept him alive why? Was his wish, not to prolong his life but to preserve his organs for dionation. So we all said good bye and the plug was pulled, and two people got one kidney each, his liver split into to two others, parts of his skin to burn cases, and the gift of sight to another. In short he kept his quality of life to his death, we did not preserve a body cause we could not let go. Faced with some moder medical things and getting older myself I would in many cases refuse treatment becaue while I may live I would not have a quality of life that would make me happy. Hope this helps sort stuff out.
I believe that one of the characteristics of the human race - possibly the one that is primarily responsible for its course of evolution - is that it has grown by creatively responding to failure.- Glen Seaborg
