So mercy killing is fine then? Its morally justified then right?
What are you calling "mercy killing?" Please define.
Reasonable take except for you asking one/someone to do it, that is the part I have problems with...
Again lets review the definition of Murder, justified or not:
Respectfully, you're making yourself look silly with your circular argument.
I am not arguing that murder is illegal. I am not arguing that assisted suicide is currently defined by law as murder. I CONCEDE THESE POINTS.
They are also irrelevant to my argument, which is: The government has no moral justification to make assisted suicide a crime. I'm arguing that it SHOULD NOT be illegal. Stop telling me what we both already know, and answer my argument.
Well then I wholeheartedly disagree then, yes it has the power to make it illegal, but I would say that it also has the moral justification to make murder illegal.
Do you understand anything about argument? You can't just SAY it's morally justified - if I'm arguing it's not morally justified and you say it is, it is YOU who must provide the justification. An unsupported assertion is not an argument.
I guess it would be ok to make mercy killing ok and legal, surely that could not get out of hand right?
What the hell are you talking about?
If you keep this up, I'm going to send you a bill for a Logic 101 class.
