Based on your worldview, what decision would you make if you were in George's situation? If I were in George's situation, suffering from amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), having been healthy for many years, I would consider voluntary euthanasia. Sometimes, thinking about how life will be without being able to do things for yourself is depressing. Assuming that, at some point, you will be dependent on others for tasks you used to perform yourself can be heartbreaking. Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) eats all the motor nerves, and medical professionals have stated that although one can live more than ten years with it, the guaranteed time without losing all morbidity is three to four years. Therefore, if I were in George's situation, I would consider voluntary euthanasia because it would save me a lot of suffering and also ease the burden of catering for me to my family. Conclusion In summary, Christians view life as a precious gift from God, saying that no human has the power or mandate to take life away. However, some sufferings are not worth enduring, especially knowing you will eventually die. Although suffering is viewed negatively by the Christian worldview, it is sometimes the best option to avoid it. For example, when you look at cancer patients and their pain during chemotherapies and radiation processes, you stop to think about why anyone would go through all that pain instead of dying. The Christian worldview views death as resting and bidding goodbye to all the suffering. Therefore, euthanasia is not bad because it aids death before the suffering begins
