We are creatures of God destined to return to him. Our free actions form the type of persons we are. When I steal I make myself a thief. Freedom makes man a moral subject. For these reasons, man s autonomy does not include the right to take his own life.
Voluntary euthanasia seems reasonable because no one likes to suffer.
Faith in Christ does not eliminate suffering but it does give man a way through suffering. The Second Vatican Council was persuasive on this topic. Every single human person will suffer at various points throughout their lifetime. Christ does not remove suffering but enables us to give our suffering meaning. A second reason some use to justify euthanasia is a separation between physical life and personal life.
