In the Netherlands where they legalize euthanasia has some very negative effects on some people that have no control over in the making of such a decision over their love ones when it comes to the matters ending someones life. I hope by watching this video will share some lights on the subject, and help you in standing up to this idea of euthanasia. As a Christian we no that we don't own our life, but we are given life to manage it well, and if someone decided to end his or her life like that, we will face up to the consequence on the other side of life.
New Zealand has a very high rate of suicide compare to other developed countries in the world, euthanasia is a danger to NZ. |
