Yes, but only if there is no chance they will survive their illness

This answer aligns with humanist values of individual autonomy and the right to make choices about one's own life, while also incorporating a condition that the patient has no chance of survival.

Agree

Yes

Humanism generally values individual autonomy and the right to make choices about one's own life. However, humanism also emphasizes the importance of reason and evidence-based decision-making. While some humanists may support the right to assisted suicide, others may argue that it should be subject to certain conditions or safeguards to ensure that the decision is rational and well-informed.

Slightly agree

No, but they should be allowed to refuse artificial life support

While humanism supports individual autonomy and the right to make choices about one's own life, this answer does not fully address the issue of assisted suicide. Humanists may agree that terminally ill patients should be allowed to refuse artificial life support, but this answer does not address the broader question of whether they should be allowed to actively end their lives with assistance.

Strongly disagree

No

Humanism generally supports individual autonomy and the right to make choices about one's own life, including the right to die with dignity. Therefore, humanists would likely disagree with a blanket prohibition on assisted suicide for terminally ill patients. However, some humanists may argue for certain conditions or safeguards to ensure that the decision is rational and well-informed.
