Terminal Sedation/Coma

Christians often recommend sedation or putting the patient into a coma as an alternative to physician assisted suicide.

• This lets Christians feel safe from retribution from their imaginary sadistic god who reputedly likes people to suffer and disapproves of physician-assisted suicide.

• Putting someone into a coma and waiting for them to die is equivalent to physician assisted suicide without the patient’s consent or even knowledge.
• With a coma, the patient misses his death, and the goodbyes.
• Barring physician-assisted suicide reduces the patient’s choices.
• It very expensive to keep someone alive in a coma. If the patient is not going to recover, there is no point to it.
• It is cowardly appeasement, letting Christians impose their superstitions on non-believers.
• Sedation and coma are almost the same. You might as well be dead. You cannot greet your friends. You cannot have experience.
