This is why euthanasia can be so frightening.

Whenever a thinking person - and in particular, a Christian - begins to consider that euthanasia is possibly a reasonable thought, along comes something to make them reconsider.
The inherent dangers in permitting euthanasia are numerous as Martin Amis demonstrates:

'Euthanasia 'booths' should be established on street corners for pensioners to end their lives with 'a martini and a medal', novelist Martin Amis said yesterday.
Britain is facing a demographic timebomb as its ageing population places an impossible burden on society, the controversial writer claimed.
Anti-euthanasia campaigners reacted with horror to the suggestion of euthanasia booths for pensioners and called Amis's idea 'repugnant and offensive'

Perception?
