"Death is part of life, but murder is not. Assisted suicide should never be interpreted as a health service," said the Austrian Bishops' Conference in a statement on June 1, in which they spoke out against the draft decriminalizing active euthanasia approved by the Austrian Supreme Court.
As can be read on the vasarnap.hu , on December 11, the Austrian Constitutional Court declared unconstitutional the passage of the penal code that prohibits assisted suicide, thus violating the individual's right to self-determination. The constitutional judges called on the government to repeal this law in 2021.
The individual's right to self-determination!
Let's take our time here. In the spirit of this, there is already a debate in several countries about legalizing physician-assisted suicide. How can this be reconciled with the Hippocratic Oath? The doctor will not have the right to self-determination about not killing people. And while we're at it, far be it from me to offend anyone, but in today's world it is certainly not unthinkable that relatives anoint the doctor in order to get rid of their burdensome relative. All you need for this is a little sedation, hand guidance and the paper is already signed.
So the Austrian constitutional judges decided to legalize murder under the heading of suicide based on the individual's right to self-determination.
How popular this self-determination is today. Why don't the judges, for example, make a decision that it is a right of self-determination if someone wants to be a millionaire, if he wants to be a constitutional judge, well, so be it.
A lot of examples could be listed, and I'm already waiting for a decision to be made that before a child is conceived, they have to ask if they want to come into the world. This is also a right of self-determination, only the Austrian constitutional judges have not thought about it yet - although they could reproach their mother.
