"By establishing a social policy that keeps physician-assisted suicide and euthanasia illegal but recognizes exceptions, we would adopt the correct moral view."

Ezekiel Emanuel

"...assisting suicide is ...not love; it's projecting your own unfinished business."

Dr. Elisabeth Kubler-Ross, author of On Death and Dying

"It started with the acceptance of the attitude, basic in the euthanasia movement, that there is such a thing as life not worthy to be lived."

Leo Alexander, 1947, on the Nuremburg Trials

"Euthanasia is a long, smooth-sounding word, and it conceals its danger as long, smooth words do, but the danger is there, nevertheless."

Pearl S. Buck, 1950

“We can never entrust our governments with the right to think they have the wisdom to be able to decide who should die.”

Sister Helen Prejean

Assisted dying?

Think Again.​

We are not religious. We believe humanism should embrace life – not death. We oppose the legalisation of assisted suicide and/or euthanasia because it is

not the right response to suffering, harmful when implemented, and morally flawed.

“I do not believe any civilized society should be at the service of death. I don’t think it’s human to become an agent of the angel of death.”
