Ahem....
All right here goes: Lets say a sane person who is not depressed or suicidal wants to take his/her own life. Should said person be allowed to? If no then why? And what gives someone the power to decide the fate of another. Likewise if yes then why should someone with nothing to gain by such an action should be allowed to simply "quit" life, die and likely depress close relatives? Anyone up for ~~~ Persona3 fandom

QUOTE(Leyviur) The fact that their choices have the most impact and the most direct influence on it. The ownership entitles them to do what they see fit for their own life, but it doesn't grant them the right to deny someone else their life. Their choices having the biggest influence? If I hold the detonator to a bomb in your head, do I own your life?And again, what grants this right? ~~~  |
