Let me get this straight the only difference to you for suicide and euthanasia is the risk of a botched job.
So your saying if my 18 year old daughter wants to kill herself because of say borderline personality disorder which is treatable I cannot intervene if she asks a professional to lethally inject her but I can intervene if she wants to hang herself and the reason is only because she might mess up the hanging?
It’s like hey you’re killing yourself? Let me save you from doing it improperly here’s the number for a guy that can do it professionally.

Also method, motivations, acceptance by family members, doctor approval, etc.

You wouldn't need to as no responsible medical professional would authorize euthanasia in that case.
> This is your “logical” argument?
No, it's your misrepresentation of my logical argument, which has consistently been more logical than your emotional argument.
Question, are you Christian? Is that influencing your complete rejection of suicide at all?
>Also method, motivations, acceptance by family members, doctor approval, etc.
Then tell me your criteria here. Doctors aren't trained specifically in euthanasia as these are arbitrary criteria rather then expert opinions. So the criteria must be established. You can't force doctors to make up an expert opinion when one doesn't exist yet. So because you advocate for this then you must tell me what exactly your criteria is? If you don't have one then you don't really have an argument.
>You wouldn't need to as no responsible medical professional would authorize euthanasia in that case.
Again what is the criteria that the medical professional authorizes? He doesn't have anything other then his own personal opinion right now. If you want to codify euthanasia into law then you need to have SOMETHING to codify. What is it? What is the criteria?
>No, it's your misrepresentation of my logical argument, which has consistently been more logical than your emotional argument.
I never misrepresented anything. You never presented an argument. You'll note my responses to you haven't been representing anything. They've been asking questions. Questions you never answered. Now with this post I'm further focusing my questioning to get a detailed answer.
>Question, are you Christian? Is that influencing your complete rejection of suicide at all?
No I'm rational. Actual Scientific data influences my rejection of suicide. On the other hand I don't think any data is involved with your rejection of it. Which is fine, morals are never rational in the first place.
