If the person is old, older than 60 years, maybe it would not seem so bad ? The person already lived some life ? But thing is Euthanasia is kinda like suicide, so it is a sin.
I'm 73 and don't want to be put to death.

Well Job when he suffered did pray to be never have been born, so it was a prayer to be euthanized kinda or not ?
Job said this while in anguish and in the entire story about him, he never went against God's will for himself,
but accepted it. He said, "we accept good things from God, should we not accept evil?"

I did not say old people should be put to death. Some old people who are sick poor and all alone want to.
They may want to, but the state can not approve of putting them to death via euthanasia.

Only legal moral way is pray to God for death, like Samson, Job and Elijah did.
Again, Job wasn't praying for death.
He was frustrated but in the last chapter regrets his words.

_________________________________

Judges 16:30
And Samson said, Let me die with the Philistines. And he bowed himself with all his might; and the house fell upon the lords, and upon all the people that were therein. So the dead which he slew at his death were more than they which he slew in his life.

He wasn't wishing for death but instead to take them down he resigned to facing his own death.

David lamented, but he also killed his friend.
So we do not necessarily follow their lead, but understand LAMENT is different than actually saying "Ok now, kill me."

This is a Catholic forum and so in the interest to see if you read a single thing I wrote I am letting you know that you cannot debate in here.
