Analysis on Wennberg
Today, controversy toward euthanasia is important. Some people agree
with euthanasia, and others disagree with euthanasia.
I think Wennberg agrees with euthanasia. In order to support his position, Wennberg uses three types of evidence; language expression, views point from religion, and medical experts' opinions. I will explain Wennberg’s position based on three types of evidence.
I think Wennberg agrees with euthanasia. In order to support his position, Wennberg uses three types of evidence; language expression, views point from religion, and medical experts' opinions. I will explain Wennberg’s position based on three types of evidence.
Firstly, Wennberg shows his position in language expression.
Wennberg said “the Christian community should at least seriously consider
euthanasia as a lethal and moral possibility.” Many religious people disagree
with euthanasia, then Wennberg suggests that the Christian reconsider about
euthanasia. So it can be said Wennberg agree with euthanasia.
Secondly, Wennberg uses viewｓ point from religion to support his
position. For example, Wennberg quotes Leslie Weatherhead's opinion, who is a
clergyman. According to Leslie Weatherhead, it is not valuable to keep living
against own will when patient lo dignity of human because of illness. As I
mentioned former, a lot of people in the Christian community disagree with
euthanasia, but some in the Christian community agree with Leslie Weatherhead
because it can be considered euthanasia is not against Christianity. Wennberg
emphasize the minority of the Christian community which agree with euthanasia,
so Wennberg’s position is for euthanasia.
Thirdly, Wennberg uses medical expert’s opinion to support his
position. For example, Wennberg quotes the words of physician, Leonard
Colebrook. According to Leonard Colebrook, the suffering for cancer patient is
not only physical but also mental. Euthanasia can save the patient from the
suffering. Leonard Colebrook agree with euthanasia and it can be support
Wennberg’s position.
In conclusion, I analyze that Wennberg agrees with euthanasia based
on three types of evidence; language expression, views point from religion, and
medical experts' opinions. However Wennberg does not always agree with
euthanasia. He sometimes says
opposition, but his mainly position is for euthanasia. Therefore, Wennberg
agrees with euthanasia.
