I get the impression that bjp naively thinks that any current laws/legislation on other issues are safe from abuse. Which ones would they be, bjp?

Many Australians are unconcerned with the risk of abuse - they simply require and opportunity to vote "YES" for euthanasia! The "NO's" can continue down their own path - now that would be democratic!

Those who oppose the legalisation of voluntary euthanasia seem to do so on the basis that only God can decide when a life should end. Well, for those who would like relief from their endless, futile and terminal pain, distress and suffering, it could be said [by those who hold a belief in God] that God has already decided that it's time for them to leave this earth.

In fact the only reason that they are still alive is that other human beings are manipulating their bodies by means of drugs and/or machines. Maybe this could be said to be going against the will of God.

This is not the same, of course, as receiving treatment which may cure a person, or at least alleviate their suffering and make their life bearable. In such a case, the treatment is not futile. And, most importantly, such treatment is likely to be welcomed by the sick person.

Would any anti-voluntary euthanasia people care to comment?

It seems to be that many human beings have secret feelings of inadequacy,and to compensate for this and to boost their fragile egos and make themselves feel powerful,they seek to impose their political or moral will on others,hypocrits and bullies will always be with us,dont do as I do but do as I say,because my view is right and therefore yours must be wrong
If only polititions would be more like computers,you get out only what you put in,but at great speed,and with no self opinionated claptrap
