It depends on the person and the situation.  \n\nWould I give my life for Osama and $50?  No.\n\nWould I give my life to save my children?  Yes.

That is a deep moral question.  One I have wrestled with.  My mother has Alzheimer's.  Her life is now down to lying in bed and suffering.  It is hell to watch her.  It is hell to stay away.  Should I be allowed to help her end her life?  If I did, how would it change me?  Could I live with it?  When I think about it I just cry.  There is nothing I can do to help her.  If I did help her end her life I would have to give up my freedom to be with my children and wife that also need me.  It is hard to believe that God has some purpose to this hell I find myself in, but I am not God.  I pray for it to be over for her and for us also.  In the mean time I love her and weep.  I honestly believe I could do it.  I also believe it would destroy me.  I am trapped.  We all are.  I think I know what I will do for myself when my time comes, but then I think that would have a horrible price for my loved ones also.  It seems to me that to keep the faith is all we really have.

No. I don't think I would. Enjoying your life here on Earth would be hard because you would always be thinking of that day you were going to die. Every day, hour, minute, and second would bring you closer and closer to your death and it would be terrifying. No thanks.

I'd be good. But not perfect. I would do my best to help others as much as possible, but I am also pretty selfish by nature so I am sure I would take advantage for my own personal gain as well.\n\nYes, I would give up work. But I would do charity stuff.

NO!!\n\nMy little boy is mine, and nobody could give him a better life then his mummy...\n\nHis future will shine anyway - he is a handsome lad with a great personality, and he doesn't need famous connections to get him where he wants to be!!!\n\nWe've got enough money to give him a good life without lacking anything - as much as any child needs and wants.\n\nTheres nothing like a mother's love!\n\n;-)

Well,  I  am not sure if that is even a very sensible  question, because it sure doesn't seem to take any consideration of who that person is and what HE might  prefer.     Human beings  aren't just one big Ant Colony, but comprised of individuals  with  very different personalities, hopes, dreams and wishes.      I  don't even think that a thousand bucks would go too far in changing somebody's LIFE.    These  days (as I know  from  experience)   ya can hardly get a dental fix-up on one tooth for that!!\n                     But if I had a thousand  dollars to spare with that  purpose in mind, I would ask that person how he or she feels  that money could be applied  to help their present situation, or  resolve a current difficulty.        I suspect a  great many of them would either  say "to pay off some of my bills"   or  "to give to...." and then they would mention the name of somebody else they felt  was in a worse shape  than  they  are.    I know  the world  is full of real "pieces of work" -  but  I  always  get the impression that there's a lot of generosity of heart out there, with needy people thinking of  others  even needier.

Whatever you have, you got from God. Anyone who would put you down for this would also put down a blind person, or a person of color, or people with disease, God provided all of these things.\nEach of us should think of what we don't like about ourselves and imagine what he is going thru.

Sure thing. I'm not very interested in having children, so assuming I *could* still die if I wanted to, absolutely I would. Actually I'd probably die in some sort of accident before I ever got bored enough with life to want to die, but that's just me.

Most people would say "Could you live without him/her?"  I say "Could you die without him/her?"  Who's eyes and heart and soul would you want with you if you were on YOUR deathbed..............think about that.........no one helps you on that journey....but who would you trust implicitly?

I would save my wife first  (probably over her objections to save the child first).  Then I would sacrifice myself to save the child.\n\nI do not currently have a child and may feel differently if I ever do.\n\nI would choose my wife first because we are supposed to be one and what can one do living as half a person.

Whether a person chooses to take their life prematurely or not, is their decision.  As a nurse for 35 years, I have seen many people die a slow painful death, so I can understand the desire to end ones suffering.  I couldn't  do it though, because I would feel there must be a reason for me to stay on this earth a little longer.  To shorten my life,  I would become  accountable to a higher power.  The one who gave me life in the first place and really is the only one who has the right to take mine away.

No I don't. I should, but some times life and the problems of survival get the best of you.........:)

You cannot live the life of others and we all need to make our choices...this is part of our learing process. If you really want the best for this person..you present to him all the facts that you know are true..and let that friend make his or her choice..After all, isn't that a God given right??

i would want to, b/c of the fact that it is a noble gesture as Jesus had sacraficed his life for us...but if i were to be honest i prob. wouldn't do that. in my heart i would want to say yes i would, but we all have a will to live. if you are a truly loving and noble person you would most likely sacrafice yourself, but unfortunately not many are that willing to risk their life (unless of course the person they're trying to save is part of their family).
