Anyway, I had done badly for my speech, I actually expected higher . But, what to do? I wonder I did not did it yesterday, what will be today performance? May be it will be better. But, it had happened already ... ... I can't do any things(unless if I had the time machine(crazy thinking)). Sometime, I feel that I am quite stupid in do the decision. My decisions so far no one time was good. Almost all end with worst ending.
Let's don't care about it first.
This is my speech for the euthanasia:
Good Morning to everyone. Today I would like to talk about euthanasia , it should or should not be legalized in Australia.
As we all know, In 1995, the world's first euthanasia legislation, the Rights of terminally Ill Act 1995, was passed in the Northern Territory of Australia. Four patients died under the Act, using a euthanasia device designed by Dr Philip Nitschke also known as ‘Dr. Death”. The legislation was overturned in 1997 by Australia’s Federal Parliament in 1997.
People around the world are arguing about euthanasia, debate are still going on. I agree that it should not be legalized, as there are some reason in human, moral values and religion teaching.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Many people support the right of a terminally ill patient to die - but what if the right becomes an obligation?
As an evidence from Holland which active euthanasia is legal there , A recent Dutch government investigation of euthanasia has come up with some disturbing findings. In 1990, 1,030 Dutch patients were killed without their consent.
The Dutch experience seems to demonstrate that the "right to die" can soon turn into an obligation. This concept is dangerous, and you could find yourself the victim if Euthanasia becomes legal in Australia.

Second , it will become a means of health care cost containment. When some thing is legalized, it certainly will be abused by people. Legalized euthanasia raises the potential for a profoundly dangerous situation in which doctors could find themselves far better off financially if a seriously ill or disabled person "chooses" to die rather than receive long-term care.

"...physician-assisted suicide, if it became widespread, could become a profit-enhancing tool for big HMOs. "
Furthermore, if the government is paying for treatment and care of the patient and they choose to cut off the cost for Savings, they will certainly replace them with the "treatment" of death.

Many People say that voluntary euthanasia will not lead to involuntary euthanasia. They only look at things as simply black and white. In real life there would be millions of situations where cases and here is one example:
An elderly person in a nursing home, who is illiterate, is asked to sign a form consenting to be killed. In fact they don’t know what is happening? Is this voluntary or involuntary? Will they be protected by the law? Once one signature can sign away a person's life, what can be as strong a protection as the current absolute prohibition on direct killing?

All human life is valuable and worth living, regardless of state of mind or other quality of life concerns. Many people argue that it is not worth because of the financial burden. But, we can't judge a human life with money. There are still other ways to get the financial support such as donation from the government, the family of the patient, organization and public.

Saving people are doctors professional roles .What if a doctor say to his patients the only way is die? Some people will doubt that are they try their best to save the patients?
As in The Hippocratic Oath ,“I will give no deadly medicine to any one if asked, nor suggest any such counsel”…In this oath, it obvious that they will not help a patient to die. And there is one more verse , ….

What if someone stands to inherit one million dollars when their parents dies? Might the heir not find it tempting to nudge them in the direction of accepting a lethal injection?
[Actually here I want to put my stupid idea of my drawing ....but in the end I didn't put, I felt so weird.
Here are two cartoon strips to illustrate this case. Property, money ,company from his father as soon as possible.

Let’s looked at the stance of religion on the issue of euthanasia.
In Islam, They believe that all human life is sacred because it is given by Allah, and that Allah decides how long each of us will live. Human beings should not interfere in this.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In buddha, euthanasia is wrong, because it demonstrates that one's mind is in a bad state and that one has allowed physical suffering to cause mental suffering.
Meditation and the proper use of pain killing drugs should enable a person to attain a state where they are not in mental pain, and so no longer contemplate euthanasia or suicide.
Buddhists might also argue that helping to end someone's life is likely to put the helper into a bad mental state, and they do harm to the other people which is not good and they will suffer the consequence when died.
Buddhists regard death as a transition. The deceased person will be reborn to a new life, whose quality will be the result of their karma.The problem is that shortening life interferes with the working out of karma, and alters the karmic balance resulting from the shortened life.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Christians are mostly against euthanasia. They believe that life is given by God and God has created human beings as in stated in the Bible, Genesis. Since birth and death are part of the life processes which God has created, so we should respect them .therefore no human being has the authority to take the life of any innocent person, even if that person wants to die. It is only God, and God alone, who has the unquestionable power to take life.
There is no support in Scripture for ending the life of an innocent person simply because of sickness, old age, or disease. In fact, God’s Word shows that the weak are to be cared for, not murdered. See 1 Thessalonians 5:14. Beside, as stated in the Bible, one of the ten commandment , “ You must not murder.” Thus, euthanasia can be consider as sin.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Finally, as we all know, one way of euthanasia is the feeding tube removed. Just imagine, if our beloved one is in the condition."How can we stand by and watch them starve to death? We love and care about them. I cannot walk down the hall knowing I am killing the one that I loved.
Before I end my speech, I only have one sentence to all of you.
If the mind keeps thinking you’ve had enough, but the heart keeps telling you don’t give up
Keep in mind there will be miracle in life. Have Faith.Thank You.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Anyway, I think I had done my best already, perhaps next time can get a higher mark.
