As I recall (but I can't find it), you posted a case where it was decided that Euthanasia should be allowed in people who suffer 'unbearable mental anguish' or something to that effect. That's rather different from expecting the lonely and depressed to end their lives, as you appear to be implying. That, patently is not happening.

It is indeed different. It is also, in my opinion better. I'd have thought that it was pretty obvious that I was voicing an opinion, rather than making a statement of fact?
