@PhilosophyExp @OxPhil_Marianne There is assisted living, why not assisted dying? After all, humans have free-will, no?

@MattsOasis@PhilosophyExp But our having free will doesn't justify murder. We have laws to stop us doing things we could choose to do. -
@OxPhil_Marianne@PhilosophyExp Assisted dying is literally not murder. -
@MattsOasis@OxPhil_Marianne The point is the existence of free will, in and of itself, doesn't tell you anything about morality of act.

@PhilosophyExp@OxPhil_Marianne Surely, life itself is assisted dying, albeit protracted? -
@Personalwetness@PhilosophyExp Um....not as the law defines it! -
@OxPhil_Marianne@PhilosophyExp You're right, I had forgotten life had become a legal entity rather than a freedom of choice.
