Why?
Why? Because religion is not something that should be imposed by the government, that's why.

I suppose, if reciting the Lord's Prayer in school is having religion imposed upon us! Actually I think it just taught to be thankful for what we have. Kids today lack that.
Are you saying that the lords prayer is not religious? Or are you saying that being required to do something by government is not imposing it upon them?
It's not just reciting prayer, the point is that the bible use to have a place of honor in our society, and once that changed we started a downward spiral.
Actually God is the problem for the anti-God crowd friend. He's the one that defined marriage, and I'm pretty sure the Lord's been around a lot longer than myself. So if you have a problem with "progress" being "held back", then your beef is with your Creator.
Whenever you would like to have a serious discussion I'll be waiting. (And I would personally love it, but you seem to be more interested in cracks and insults.)
Of course the Lord's Prayer is religious! Imposed? Hardly, no one made us recite it, it was 15 seconds in the day when you could think about whatever you wanted to. It's just one of those things that never did anyone real harm but possibly did benefit a few people. It's just not worth making a huge issue out of, any more than singing "O'Canada" at the beginning hockey game.
Euthanasia. That is a touchy subject, with much fear of abuse by many assuming that someone
else will make their choice for them....be it a Doctor or a Politician...and not the terminal Patient.
We're part way there, with DNR orders and such as long as they're respected. Personally, I'm
for someone having the choice to decide for themselves when the time comes.
To answer the OP.... yes, her lawsuit should be allowed to continue. To not allow it to, would be the true perversion of justice.
I haven't landed firmly on one side of the assisted suicide debate yet. There are huge questions to consider surrounding it. But one thing I do know is that the patients who are trying to push this in court, are dying. They have a statement to make surrounding that fact, they have a legal challenge for the government surrounding that fact. And it would be ridiculously easy of the government to dodge that question by simply dragging its feet. It's a uniquely time limited legal issue, and I don't think it would be fair to the the challengers involved, to be silenced by time.
I think it's one of those things that has to be judged individually on its own merits. 90 years old all organs failing........definitely, 60 years old with a treatable disease and a few mental issues mixed in ....................definitely NOT.
Any proposed laws surrounding assisted suicide that I have seen would preclude anyone with untreated depression or mental problems from choosing it.
She is paralyzed from the neck down, tethered to breathing and feeding tubes — but Manhattan bank manager Grace Sung Eun Lee still managed to mouth four words Wednesday.
“I want to die.”
Doctors are trying to honor Lee’s wish, but her devout parents believe that removing the tubes is suicide — a sin that would condemn the 28-year-old to hell.
They’ve gone to court to keep the terminally ill brain-cancer patient on life support, turning a heartbreaking family tragedy into a right-to-die legal battle
... thanks for the comment ...My grandmother got a voting card for my grandfather in the 1997 election. Thing is he died in 1993. She corrected them though.

... i've been sued twice in the same courthouse where this right-to-die petition is being heard by my dad -- AFTER HE DIED!!! this corrupt courhouse is the last place you want any important legislative decisions to be made ...
... how about someone petitioning the crown for the right to allow phony lawsuits with dead petitioners to die!
... nope, in at least two instances the petitioner named in the motions against me that were heard and endorsed by the supreme court of british columbia was my deceased dad, not his estate ...I wouldn't brag about being sued by your father's estate, it certainly makes you look bad.
